About this study

Official title: Comparison of the Central Venous Catheter Insertion Techniques: the Thin-wall Needle Versus the Catheter-over-the-needle Technique in Children

The purpose of this study is to compare the differences in central venous catheter insertion time, success rate, and complication between thin-wall needle technique and catheter-over-the-needle technique for central venous catheterization in children.

Read the detailed description

Catheterization was performed using ultrasound with an "out-of-plane" approach by inserting the introducer needle (thin-wall needle technique) or Angiocath Plus™ catheter (catheter-over-the-needle technique) in 45 - 60° to the patient's skin while viewing the vein in a cross section.

What is being measured

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

  1. Guide-wire insertion time

    Measured: interval between skin penetration and removal of the needle or catheter after guide wire insertion, an expected average of 80 seconds

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Time to first puncture of central vein

    Measured: interval between skin penetration of the needle or catheter and flashback of blood, an expected average of 25 seconds

  2. Total time of central venous catheter insertion

    Measured: interval between skin penetration of the needle or catheter and installation of the indwelling catheter, an expected average of 3 minutes

  3. Number of central vein puncture trial

    Measured: up to 5 times, an expected average observation time of 25 seconds

  4. Number of guide-wire insertion trial

    Measured: up to 5 times, an expected average observation time of 80 seconds

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing catheter-over-the-needle technique and Thin-wall needle technique in people with Child and Surgery, run by Seoul National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 2 inclusion and 3 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 9 Dec 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. 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?

Guide-wire insertion time (time frame: interval between skin penetration and removal of the needle or catheter after guide wire insertion, an expected average of 80 seconds). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 9 Dec 2014.
