What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Incidence of successful puncturing on the first attempt

    Measured: From catheter fixation until the stay in operation theatre and/or recovery room up to 12 hours

Secondary outcomes (11)
  1. Rate of insertion failures

    Measured: From catheter fixation until the stay in operation theatre and/or recovery room up to 12 hours

  2. Rate of difficulties to insert catheter and to withdraw the needle with regard to:Penetration characteristics of the needle, insertion and movement of catheter

    Measured: From catheter fixation until the stay in operation theatre and/or recovery room up to 12 hours

  3. Rate and number of testing of ease of moving

    Measured: From catheter fixation until the stay in operation theatre and/or recovery room up to 12 hours

  4. Rate and number of recannulation

    Measured: From catheter fixation until the stay in operation theatre and/or recovery room up to 12 hours

  5. Rate, number and kind/extend of blood emission

    Measured: From catheter fixation until the stay in operation theatre and/or recovery room up to 12 hours

  6. Incidence of needle stick injuries

    Measured: During catheter fixation

  7. Condition of fixation after completion of catheter insertion

    dry and clean, moisturized, soiled?

    Measured: During catheter fixation until directly after catheter insertion

  8. Rate of adherence to standard application requirements of catheter placement

    Measured: During catheter fixation until directly after catheter fixation

  9. For Vasofix Safety: Rate and nature of use of application port

    Measured: From catheter fixation until the stay in operation theatre and/or recovery room up to 12 hours

  10. General judgment of catheter (school class grading)

    Measured: From catheter fixation until the stay in operation theatre and/or recovery room up to 12 hours

  11. Adverse Events

    Measured: From catheter fixation until the stay in operation theatre and/or recovery room up to 12 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Intravenous Access According to Instructions For Use, run by B. Braun Melsungen AG at 2 sites in Germany.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Jan 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of successful puncturing on the first attempt (time frame: From catheter fixation until the stay in operation theatre and/or recovery room up to 12 hours). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02213965, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 Jan 2019.
