About this study

The objective of this research is to verify the procedural improvements enabled by use of a CAIG system to supplement existing ultrasound guided, needle-based procedures. The primary focus will be procedures performed by the Anesthesia department.

Read the detailed description

The study will utilize two groups of patients: control and test. The control group will receive the procedure with traditional methods and equipment currently in use at Cooper University. The test group will receive the same procedure utilizing existing ultrasound equipment with the supplemental CAIG system. It is anticipated that 100 patients will be included in the study. After each procedure completion times, number of needle repositions, and punctures will be recorded along with an "ease of procedure" self-reported qualitative metric from the physician performing the procedure.

Being tested
Computer Assisted Instrument Guidance (CAIG), which supplements existing ultrasound capabilities.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Computer Assisted Instrument Guidance (CAIG), which supplements existing ultrasound capabilities.Device

    Also called Clear Guide ONE

    The Clear Guide ONE is a Computer Assisted Instrument Guidance (CAIG) device which supplements existing ultrasound capabilities. The participants randomly selected (out of 100 patients) for use of the Clear Guide ONE (test group) will receive ultrasound guidance as well as CAIG from the MDs performing the procedure.
