Actual (reported)The primary objective is to determine whether the use of ultrasound guidance compared to standard IV access improves the proportion of successful IV placement on a first attempt for children in a pediatric emergency department who have predicted difficult access by a validated score. Secondary objectives include determining whether ultrasound-guided IV access lowers the overall number of IV attempts and/or reduces time to IV access. The investigators will also examine the duration of IV access and any complications related to IV access in both the traditional and ultrasound guided IV access group.

Actual (reported)Success of Initial IV Placement Attempt
Patients will be randomized to traditional IV placement or ultrasound guided IV placement immediately after enrollment. The IV will be placed directly following enrollment.
Participants will be followed through the duration of emergency department stay, an expected average of 4 hours
Measure the overall number of IV attempts..
Participants will be followed through the duration of emergency department stay, an expected average of 4 hours
Time to IV access.
Participants will be followed through the duration of emergency department stay, an expected average of 4 hours
Patient & family satisfaction with IV placement method.
Participants will be followed through the duration of emergency department stay, an expected average of 4 hours
Compare the survival (in length of time) of IV access
Participants will be followed through the duration of hospital stay, expected average of 5 days
This group will have their IV placed by ultrasound guidance.
The patients randomized to traditional IV access will have their IVs placed by standard technique.
The ultrasound machine will be used to guide intravenous line placement in patients randomized to the ultrasound guided intravenous line group
Placement by experienced nurse using standard IV techniques
