Filter by:Primary objective of the study is to establish the incidence of all any catheter related complications in BIP CVC and standard CVC groups in patients requiring CVC. (CVC - Central Venous Catheter; BIP - Bactiguard Infection Protection)
In this prospective clinical study, the researchers investigate the incidence of catheter-related thrombosis and catheter-related infection during indwelling central venous catheterization in critically ill patients, and analyzed the risk factors for catheter-related complications and the relationship between catheter-related thrombi and catheter-related infections. The sample size is about 500.
Peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs) are central catheters that are placed via peripheral vein under ultrasound guidance and may be used for patients with difficult venous access for long-term central or peripheral infusion therapies as well as central venous pressure monitoring in a critical care setting. Although PICCs provide a great option for some patients, these catheters have known complications including catheter-related bloodstream infection, catheter-related venous thrombosis or clotting, malfunction, and high cost. Midline catheters represent a potentially attractive alternative to PICCs for peripheral infusions. As midlines have increased in popularity and new midlines have been introduced into the market, it is necessary to better understand complication profiles of various midline catheters, as it is likely that all catheters are not created equal. Specifically, the incidence of symptomatic catheter-related thrombosis is of interest. Some midline catheters are coated to provide protection against catheter-related venous thrombosis and/or catheter-related bloodstream infection. The theoretical benefit(s) of these catheters need further validation in human subjects.
Hemodialysis catheter related bacterial infections represent a major cause of mortality and morbidity in the hemodialysis population. Several locking agents had been tried with variable degree of success but not without side effects. Neutrolin catheter locking agent comprises of heparin,citrate and trauolidine that had been studied in a prospective study in Germany, and it demonstrated a very good result in terms of reducing the catheter related infections and thrombosis. This study is a multi-center, double-blind RCT comparing the hemodialysis catheter locking solution Neutrolin with heparin in reducing the rate of catheter related bacterial infection and thrombosis.
This is a post-market, observational, retrospective multi-center Registry designed to gather information on the performance of the Angel® Catheter in general clinical practice.
