Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of participants presenting peripheral catheter insertion-related complications for each intervention

    Peripheral insertion-related complications: phebitis, infiltration, catheter loss, obstruction

    From catheter insertion until the date of documented complication or catheter withdrawal assessed up to 10 days

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Demographic traits of participants presenting peripheral catheter-related complications

    From catheter insertion until the date of documented complication or catheter withdrawal assessed up to 10 days

  • The proportion of canalization aspects in peripheral catheter-related complications

    From catheter insertion until the date of documented complication or catheter withdrawal assessed up to 10 days

  • Number of participants that present immobilization of the limb in both techniques

    From catheter insertion until the date of documented complication or catheter withdrawal assessed up to 10 days

  • Use of the catheter inserted in participants presenting peripheral catheter-related complications

    From catheter insertion until the date of documented complication or catheter withdrawal assessed up to 10 days

Study Arms (2)

Traditional technique

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Peripheral venous catheters inserted to the participants in this arm are inserted with a palpation/visualization guided technique in their hand, arm, foot or head.

Procedure: Traditional Peripheral venous catheter insertion

Ultrasound-guided technique

EXPERIMENTAL

Peripheral venous catheters inserted to the participants in this arm are inserted with an ultrasound-guided technique in their forearm.

Procedure: Ultrasound-guided insertion of a peripheral venous catheter

Interventions

Insertion of a short catheter in a peripheral vein with the help of visualization palpation

Traditional technique

Insertion of a short catheter in a peripheral vein with the help of an ultrasound device

Ultrasound-guided technique

Eligibility Criteria

AgeUp to 18 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

  • Age between 0 and 18 years
  • Patients in need of a peripheral venous catheter

You may not qualify if:

  • Inability of insertion in both forearms (i.e. burnt, amputation)
  • Patients in need of a central venous catheter
