About this study

Official title: Real-time Ultrasound-guided Axillary and Jugular Vein Catheterization: A Prospective Comparison in Mechanically Ventilated Critically Ill Patients. A Randomized Study

The main intention of this study is to compare two ultrasound-guided central venous catheterization procedures namely: real-time, ultrasound-guided, in plane axillary vein catheterization and real-time, ultrasound-guided, out of plane jugular vein catheterization in terms of venipuncture, catheterization success, early mechanical complication and catheter-related infection rate in mechanically ventilated patients admitted to the intensive care unit.

What is being measured

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

  1. Procedure success rate

    to define catheterization success rate

    Measured: 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Incidence of Catheter colonization

    to assess the incidence of catheter colonization after removal

    Measured: 1 month

  2. Incidence of catheter-related bloodstream infection

    to assess the incidence of catheter-related bloodstream infection

    Measured: 1 month

  3. Procedure complication rate

    to assess the early mechanical complication rate

    Measured: 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Real-time ultrasound-guided central vein catheterization. in people with Critical Illness, run by Uniwersytecki Szpital Kliniczny w Opolu at 2 sites in Poland.

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 1 inclusion and 6 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 4 Aug 2020. 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 Poland. 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?

Procedure success rate (time frame: 24 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 NCT02624323, 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 4 Aug 2020.
