About this study
Official title: Vascular Positioning System G4 Algorithm ECG Data Collection for Model Training Study, A Single Center Prospective Clinical Study
The objective of this study is to collect intravascular and extravascular echocardiogram (ECG) data from subjects receiving peripherally inserted central catheters (PICC) while using the Vascular Positioning System G4 and a 12 lead ECG machine. The data obtained will be used to update the G4 algorithm.
Read the detailed description
This study seeks to collect synchronized digital data collected from the G4 and ECG machines during the PICC insertion procedure. A copy of the data will be downloaded from the G4 and ECG machines and submitted to the sponsor. Both the G4 and the ECG machine used for data collection in this study are FDA cleared/approved.
Study Design: This is a single center prospective clinical study. All enrolled subjects will receive a 12-lead ECG during PICC insertion and a chest x-ray post insertion. ECG lead will be documented via photographic imaging.
Duration of Subject Study Participation: Each subject's participation will start at the time of signing the informed consent and terminate upon completion of the x-ray.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
VPS G4 System Digital Data vs GE MAC 5500 Ecg Machine Data
All subjects for this study had their ECG recorded by the VPS G4 and GE MAC 5500 simultaneously. VPS G4 digital captured data recorded at 11.667 MHz measuring ISPTA.3 (mW/cm2) vs Digitally captured data from the GE MAC 5500 ECG Machine at a sample resolution of 4.88 μV/LSB @ 250 sps, 1.22 μV/LSB @ 500 sps and a frequency response of -3 dB @ 0.01 to 150 Hz vs time (s).
Measured: From time of consent through completion of chest x-ray

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Peripheral ICC, run by Teleflex at 1 site in United States.
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 4 inclusion and 6 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 2025. 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 United States. 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?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 8 Apr 2025). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
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?
VPS G4 System Digital Data vs GE MAC 5500 Ecg Machine Data (time frame: From time of consent through completion of chest x-ray). 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 8 Apr 2025; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 27 Oct 2026.
