Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • % of patients without VAD-related adverse event requiring medical intervention

    Infections, Thrombophlebitis, Infiltration, Bleeding, Pain, Death

    Until 1 week after VAD retrieval

  • % of patients whose intended or additional I.V treatments could be completed with the VAD without VAD complications, dysfunctions or limitations (ex: need for central access or for additional peripheral or central lumens/catheters)

    Until 1 week after VAD retrieval

Secondary Outcomes (8)

  • % of patients who experience VAD-related adverse events requiring medical intervention

    Until 1 week after VAD retrieval

  • Number of VAD-related adverse events requiring medical intervention per 1000 catheter/days

    Until 1 week after VAD retrieval

  • Time to first VAD-related adverse events

    Until 1 week after VAD retrieval

  • Duration VAD intervention (Midline or PICC)

    Index procedure

  • Number of additional interventions to insert the VAD

  • Patient from other hospitals who come to the CHUM only for the installation of a central line
  • Decreased cognitive ability to care for device at home
  • Preexisting bacteremia (ie, existing positive blood cultures that had not been repeated with negative results)
  • Preexisting venous thrombosis or known hypercoagulable states (such as protein C or S deficiency, antithrombin deficiency, lupus anticoagulant)
  • Venous access with multiple lumens required
  • Patients not able to give informed consent
  • Prior participation to this study
  • Patient is enrolled in another investigational study
