About this study

Official title: Effect of Ultrasound-guided Insertion of Peripheral Catheters in the Forearm in Complications Incidence.

The purpose of this study is to compare the appearance of complications after the insertion of peripheral venous catheters with two different techniques (traditional and ultrasound-guided).

Read the detailed description

All patients, whose parents were informed about the study and give written informed consent, will be randomized in a double-blind manner (participant and investigator) in a 1:1 ratio to visualization/palpation or ultrasound-guided peripheral catheter insertion. All participants undergo a 10 days monitoring of the catheter status.

Being tested
Traditional Peripheral venous catheter insertion, Ultrasound-guided insertion of a peripheral venous catheter
Keywords
peripheral, ultrasound-guided

What participants receive

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

  • Traditional Peripheral venous catheter insertionProcedure or surgery

    Insertion of a short catheter in a peripheral vein with the help of visualization palpation

  • Ultrasound-guided insertion of a peripheral venous catheterProcedure or surgery

    Insertion of a short catheter in a peripheral vein with the help of an ultrasound device

Study groups in NCT05284422
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Traditional techniqueActive comparatorPeripheral venous catheters inserted to the participants in this arm are inserted with a palpation/visualization guided technique in their hand, arm, foot or head.
Receives: Procedure: Traditional Peripheral venous catheter insertion
Ultrasound-guided techniqueExperimentalPeripheral venous catheters inserted to the participants in this arm are inserted with an ultrasound-guided technique in their forearm.
Receives: Procedure: Ultrasound-guided insertion of a peripheral venous catheter

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of participants presenting peripheral catheter insertion-related complications for each intervention

    Peripheral insertion-related complications: phebitis, infiltration, catheter loss, obstruction

    Measured: From catheter insertion until the date of documented complication or catheter withdrawal assessed up to 10 days

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Demographic traits of participants presenting peripheral catheter-related complications

    Age average (years) and gender (male/female)

    Measured: From catheter insertion until the date of documented complication or catheter withdrawal assessed up to 10 days

  2. The proportion of canalization aspects in peripheral catheter-related complications

    Catheter size (Ga), operator experience (years), insertion site (hand/forearm/arm/foot/head), insertion ward (PICU/ER)

    Measured: From catheter insertion until the date of documented complication or catheter withdrawal assessed up to 10 days

  3. Number of participants that present immobilization of the limb in both techniques

    Immobilization of the limb where the peripheral catheter is inserted (Yes/No)

    Measured: From catheter insertion until the date of documented complication or catheter withdrawal assessed up to 10 days

  4. Use of the catheter inserted in participants presenting peripheral catheter-related complications

    Type of fluid infusion, antibiotic administration (Yes/No)

    Measured: From catheter insertion until the date of documented complication or catheter withdrawal assessed up to 10 days

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Spain. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Jesus Corrionero, Nurse (+34616559445, jcorrionero@vhebron.net), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of participants presenting peripheral catheter insertion-related complications for each intervention (time frame: From catheter insertion until the date of documented complication or catheter withdrawal assessed up to 10 days). 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 NCT05284422, which also lists 9 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.

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 17 Mar 2022.
