About this study

Official title: Study on the Influence of Skin Laxity on the Application Effect of Different PICC Catheterization Methods

To evaluate the clinical effect of tunneled PICC by comparing the rate of complications of the two groups of patients (tunneled PICC vs conventional PICC).

Read the detailed description

In this study, tunneled PICC was compared with conventional PICC. Eligible subjects were randomly enrolled into the test group or control group by randomization (1:1), and observed and evaluated the occurrence of complications during and 7 ± 3 days, 30 ± 7 days, 60 ± 10 days, 90 ± 10 days, 120 ± 10 days (if any) after surgery and extubation at the end of treatment. To evaluate the clinical effect of tunneled PICC by comparing the rate of complications of the two groups of patients

What participants receive

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

  • tunneled PICCDevice

    PICC catheter is inserted into the superior vena cava through the upper brachial vein by establishing a subcutaneous tunnel

What is being measured

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

  1. rate of PICC complications

    Including bleeding, subcutaneous congestion, lymphatic exudation, phlebitis (mechanical phlebitis, thrombophlebitis), infection (local infection, tunnel infection, catheter related blood flow infection), thrombus (symptomatic thrombus, asymptomatic thrombus), catheter ectopic, medical adhesive related skin damage, catheter damage and blockage, etc

    Measured: 120 days

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. time of PICC insertion

    Time from the start of skin disinfection to the end of dressing fixation

    Measured: 1 hour

  2. Success rate of catheterization

    Judgment of successful catheterization: The catheterization is successful and the catheter is placed in an accurate position, that is, the tip of the catheter reaches within 1/3 of the lower part of the superior vena cava or near the junction of the right atrium.

    Measured: 1 hour

  3. score of operation pain

    Wong Banker facial expression scale was used. This method uses 6 facial expressions from smile to cry to express the degree of pain: 0 points for no pain, 1 point for slight pain, 2 points for some pain, 3 points for very pain, 4 points for severe pain, and 5 points for unbearable pain

    Measured: 1 hour

  4. rate of unplanned extubation

    Extubation after abnormal treatment

    Measured: 120 days

  5. rate of difficulty in decannulation

    Probability of failure to pull out PICC due to vasospasm, adhesion with thrombus, wrapping of fibrin sheath, etc

    Measured: 120 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing tunneled PICC in people with Complications; Catheter, run by First People's Hospital of Foshan.

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 6 inclusion and 8 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Nov 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

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?

rate of PICC complications (time frame: 120 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 29 Nov 2022.
