NCT02553421

Brief Summary

This study will examine the use of the ivWatch Model 400 to monitor PIV sites in pediatric patients. Half the participants will be monitored by the device without infiltration notifications and the other half will be monitored by the device with infiltration notifications enabled.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Time Infiltration Detected by Nurse

    The difference in time to detection between the clinician and the ivWatch device is measured from the non-alarming group. This measurement reveals how much earlier the infiltration could have been detected by the ivWatch device compared to the clinician assessments. This metric is measured using the patients in the non-alarming group since an infiltration notification by the ivWatch device could bias the clinician's diagnosis.

    Participants will be followed for the duration of intravenous therapy, an expected duration of up to 1 week

  • Infiltration Sensitivity

    The infiltration sensitivity is defined as the percentage of the clinician-confirmed infiltrations that are detected by the ivWatch device before the clinician's diagnosis. This metric is measured and reported separately for non-alarming and alarming groups, since an infiltration notification by the ivWatch device could bias the clinician's diagnosis.

    Participants will be followed for the duration of intravenous therapy, an expected duration of up to 1 week

  • Notification Rate of ivWatch Device

    The notification rate is defined as the number of ivWatch device infiltration notifications issued in a certain amount of time, typically reported in units of notifications per day. The notification rate is the number of notifications per day, excluding cases with clinician confirmed infiltrations. This metric is measured using the subjects in the alarming group since the number of notifications could potentially depend on how quickly nurses reset the device.

    Participants will be followed for the duration of intravenous therapy, an expected duration of up to 1 week

Study Arms (3)

Pilot

EXPERIMENTAL

A non-alarming ivWatch device will monitor the IV sites of these subjects. The goal of this small pilot study is to give clinicians an opportunity to perform the protocol and operate the ivWatch device and to give researchers the ability to make adjustments prior to starting the subsequent non-alarming group.

Device: ivWatch Model 400

Non-alarming

EXPERIMENTAL

150 patients will be enrolled in the non-alarming group. The ivWatch device will monitor the IV sites but will not issue infiltration notifications.

Device: ivWatch Model 400

Alarming

EXPERIMENTAL

150 patients will be enrolled in the alarming group. The IV sites will be monitored with the ivWatch Model 400 infiltration notifications enabled.

Device: ivWatch Model 400

Interventions

The ivWatch Model 400 is placed next to the subject's PIV site. All subjects will receive standard care for their IV sites including the normal routine assessments of the IV site by the bedside registered nurses.
