Trial summary

In neonate and infant, radial artery cannulation may be challenging and multiple attempts are required because of the small diameter. The invastigators will compare the success rates of radial arterial cannulation with a guidewire-assisted technique and the direct technique in pediatric patient(<1yr). Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Comparison of Radial Artery Cannulation Technique in Pediatric Patients: Direct Versus Guidewire-assisted

In neonate and infant, radial artery cannulation may be challenging and multiple attempts are required because of the small diameter.

The invastigators will compare the success rates of radial arterial cannulation with a guidewire-assisted technique and the direct technique in pediatric patient(<1yr).

What participants receive

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

  • Guidewire-assistProcedure or surgery

    catheter insertion with guidewire-assist(catheter over guidewire)

  • DirectProcedure or surgery

    catheter insertion without guidewire assist(catheter over needle)

What is being measured

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

  1. success rate at 1st attempt (%)

    successful catheter insertion after obtaining 1st blood flush in angiocatheter.

    Measured: from arterial cannulation to successful invasive BP monitoring (up to 1 hour)

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. total elapsed time (seconds)

    total time for successful cannulation.

    Measured: from arterial cannulation to successful invasive BP monitoring (up to 1 hour)

  2. number of total cannulation attempts (number)

    number of total attempts until successful cannulation. (1 attempt = 1 blood flush)

    Measured: from arterial cannulation to successful invasive BP monitoring (up to 1 hour)

  3. number of total catheter used (number)

    number of total catheter used until successful cannulation.

    Measured: from arterial cannulation to successful invasive BP monitoring (up to 1 hour)

  4. malfunction of arterial line

    pressure monitoring, blood sampling

    Measured: from the start of invasive BP monitoring until the end of anesthesia (up to 1 day)

  5. complications

    hematoma, ischemia

    Measured: from the arterial cannulation until the end of anesthesia (up to 1 day)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Guidewire-assist and Direct in people with Arterial Line, 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 1 inclusion and 2 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 8 Apr 2019. 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?

success rate at 1st attempt (%) (time frame: from arterial cannulation to successful invasive BP monitoring (up to 1 hour)). 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 NCT03217019, 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 8 Apr 2019.
