About this study

Official title: Evaluation of a Tissue Glue SecurePortIV on Prevention of Phlebitis and Migration of PICC and Midline Catheters in Adult Patients

The study will evaluate a new type of cyanoacrylate tissue glue Secure PortIV on the insertion site of the PICC (Peripherally inserted central catheter) or Midline catheters. Fixation of the catheter with the tissue glue should prevent incidents of mechanical and infective phlebitis as well as external migrations of the catheters.

Read the detailed description

In the study, 125 subjects will receive the new tissue glue Secure PortIV and 125 subjects will be provided standard care. The tissue glue will be applied immediately after insertion. Evaluation and re-evaluation of the site will be done on the first and seventh day after insertion using VIP and CLISA (Central-Line Insertion Site Assessment) scale and on the seventh day with taking a swab from the insertion site; the external length will be measured on the first and the seventh day, in order to observe the migration or not.

The goal of the study is to evaluate the benefits of the cyanoacrylate tissue glue Secure PortIV in the prevention of mechanical and infective phlebitis and external migration of the catheter.

What participants receive

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

  • Catheter fixation with surgical stitchDevice

    The catheter will be fixed using the standard procedure - surgical stitch.

What is being measured

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

  1. The incidence of mechanical and infective phlebitis

    The incidence of mechanical and infective phlebitis will be measured in the group with the cyanoacrylate tissue glue in comparison with the standard treatment

    Measured: Up to 6 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The incidence of external migration of the catheter

    The incidence of external migration of the catheter will be measured in the group with the cyanoacrylate tissue glue in comparison with the standard treatment

    Measured: Up to 6 months

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04900740, which also lists 8 linked publications.

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.
