  2. number of attempts to insert a peripheral venous catheter

    Average in each group of the number of attempts

    Measured: within the hour during insertion of peripheral venous catheter

  3. number of calls for a second nurse in the service

    Average in each group of the number of service's interveners for a catheter placement

    Measured: within the hour during insertion of peripheral venous catheter

  4. number of calls to a nurse anesthetist

    Average in each group of the number of external interveners

    Measured: within the hour during insertion of peripheral venous catheter

  5. location of the final placement site

    Proportion of patients in each group according to the location of the final placement site

    Measured: within the hour during insertion of peripheral venous catheter

  6. the caliber of the catheter placed

    Proportion of patients in each group according to the caliber of the catheter placed

    Measured: within the hour during insertion of peripheral venous catheter

  7. infectious or thromboembolic events

    Measured: 4 days

  8. duration of catheter placement

    Average duration, in minutes, of catheter placement in each group

    Measured: within the hour during insertion of peripheral venous catheter

  9. functional life of the catheter

    functional life of the catheter, by group.

    Measured: 4 days
