Brief Summary
This is a single-centre, open-label, multi-visit study design, in 40 healthy participants, randomized by gauge of peripheral intravenous catheter (PIVC) device into the lower arm cephalic vein of both arms. The purpose of this study is to assess impact of catheter length and gauge on PIVC indwell time over a 72 hour period. This study will also evaluate the incidence of haemolysis using blood draws from the PIVC.

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Female or Male
- years of age
- Not pregnant at time of recruitment within 48 hrs Day 1 procedures (self-reported)
- Normal coagulation results (prothrombin time 13-17 sec; activated partial thromboplastin time 27-37 sec)
- Normal platelet aggregation results for Adenosine DiPhosphate (ADP), Thrombin Receptor Activating Peptide (TRAP), and collagen induced maximal amplitude (\>70% amplitude over 6 mins)
- Target cephalic veins readily cannulatable (i.e., ≥ \~2.55 mm to obtain C/V ratio less than 45% as indicated by standard 52 of the Intraevenous Nursing Standards (INS) guidelines
- Able and willing to provide verbal and written consent
- Must be an Australian citizen with current Medicare card
You may not qualify if:
- History of pro coagulative state/condition (e.g. previous deep vein thrombosis
- Current hypertension (e.g., systolic \>139 OR diastolic \>89 mmHg)
- Hemophilia or any current or history of bleeding disorder or tendency
- Presence or report of current blood borne disease/infection (e.g. hepatitis, HIV, leukemia, lymphoma)
- Difficult vascular access (i.e., vein must be readily palpable and cannulatable - no less than \~2.55 mm diameter to maintain ≤45% C/V ratio) as indicated by standard 52 of the INS guidelines
- Allergy or sensitivity to chlorhexidine gluconate, isopropyl alcohol, latex, or skin adhesives
- BMI \<18.5 kg/m2 or ≥35 kg/m2
- Positive results for the urine drug screen at screening or check-in (including opiates, methadone, cocaine, amphetamines)
- History or presence of alcoholism (self-reported) or drug abuse within the past 2 years
- A current or previous medical, physical, mental/cognitive disorders or anatomical conditions that, in the opinion of the investigator, would place the patient at risk, would make them unable to perform study procedures or has the potential to confound interpretation of the study results. (e.g., musculo-skeletal injury, chronic back pain)
