Filter by:Short summary: The aim of this randomized controlled clinical research study was to compare distal radial artery cannulation with forearm radial artery cannulation in terms of efficacy and ease of administration. The investigators believe that cannulation of the distal radial artery in cases requiring invasive arterial monitoring should preserve the radial artery of the forearm for future health problems and reduce circulatory complications by working more distally. The main question[s] aims to answer are: - [question 1]: whether artery monitoring can be performed with a more distal approach - [question 2]: efficacy and safety of the distal approach
Introduction: Venous access is increasingly necessary and essential in healthcare institutions, where more than 75% of hospitalised patients have some type of vascular access device cannulated. Due to their pathophysiological characteristics and pharmacological needs, some patients require special catheters, such as midline or peripherally inserted central catheters. In an attempt to reduce the main complications related to these, the safety of cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive has recently been demonstrated in the post-insertion treatment of vascular access devices. Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of the use of cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive as fixation in the post-insertion of cannulated middle and central venous catheters with modified micro-Seldinger technique in acute hospitalized patients. Methods: Randomised clinical trial with two groups(1:1): control and intervention. The control group received a cure with sutureless device plus transparent membrane and the intervention group received the same cure plus the cyanoacrylate glue. The study was approved by the Drug Research Ethics Committee of the Lleida health region. health region. KEYWORDS: Cyanoacrylates; Vascular Access Device; Catheterization, Peripheral; Nursing Care; Randomized Controlled Trial.
Peripheral intravenous cannulation (PIVC) is one of the most common interventions in medical practice. Venous dilatation is helpful for successful PIV placement. Several techniques include hot pack application, tourniquet, massaging, and tapping over the vein to increase vein caliber described in the literature. However, none of them has been rigorously studied. Therefore, there is still no 'best practice' on how to effect vein dilation in a standard way. This study aims to investigate the effect of standardized tapping on venous dilatation with a massage device compared to manual non-standardized tapping and define a standard tapping technique using a device. In this study, the investigators also aim to investigate the effect of tourniquet application with and without vein tapping effect on peripheral vein caliber as determined by ultrasound measurement.
The objective of this project is to define the effectiveness and therefore the role of NIR vein finders in adult patients with difficult peripheral venous access. The specific objective of the proposed randomized controlled trial is to test the clinical success rate of placing peripheral venous catheters in 'difficult' access patients using traditional peripheral venous catheter placement compared to two established methods utilizing NIR vein imaging. The investigators hypothesize that the capability to successfully place lasting peripheral venous catheters is increased with the adjunct of the imaging technology, reducing the number of failed needle sticks, reducing the number of peripheral venous catheters placed throughout a patient's hospital stay, and reducing the need for more invasive catheters such as PICC lines.
The purpose of this study is to determine if the use of ultrasound guidance to insert peripheral intravenous catheters will decrease the number of punctures required to successful insertion. The hypothesis is that fewer attempts will be required with the use of ultrasound potentially leading to preservation of vessels, decreased patient pain scores and increased patient/parent satisfaction.
Compare the number of attempts to place a peripheral venous catheter in the group of patients hospitalized in the post-emergency unit and benefiting from echo guidance and therapeutic communication, to the group of patients hospitalized on the post-emergency unit using traditional technique.
Diabetes Mellitus type 2 (T2DM) is one of the most frequent metabolic diseases worldwide. It is expected that in 2035 around 600 million people will suffer from the disease. A recent systematic review has estimated that the direct annual cost of Diabetes worldwide treatments and care is over $ 827 billion and has been independently associated with nosocomial complications, thrombosis-like infections and prolonged admissions. In addition, it is estimated that up to 90% of patients in acute hospitals require a peripheral venous catheter which are associated at the same time with mechanical, infectious and thrombotic acute complications. Recently the emergence of new medium-sized peripheral devices (Midline®) and new peripheral central venous access catheters (PICC), which are more biocompatible, are opening new clinical possibilities with the aim of improving safety and comfort during treatment time and the reduction of associated complications. With all this, a observational case-control study has been proposed in order to analyze the impact of T2DM disease and its associated complications on the patient requiring peripheral venous access. Furthermore investigators will consider if these new peripheral devices can be a remarkable benefit for these patients. This study will be carried out at the Vall d'Hebron University Hospital in Barcelona, Spain

The NVS Therapy is being studied to evaluate the safety and efficacy to facilitate retention of acute luminal gain, leading to acute hemodynamic improvement in superficial femoral and popliteal arteries with reference vessel diameters between 4.0 and 7.0 mm and lesion lengths less than or equal to 56mm.
Peripheral intravenous catheterization (PIVC) is the most frequent invasive clinical procedure in a hospital setting, associated with significant complication rates for the patient, compromising their well-being, as well as the quality, safety, and efficacy of the care provided. The traditional approach to PIVC is considered reactive and ineffective, resulting in the exhaustion of the patients' peripheral venous access prior to consideration of other access methods and options (Moureau et al., 2012). Evidence suggests that the safety and effectiveness of patients with a peripheral catheter are also intrinsically associated with the adequacy of materials and technologies used in clinical contexts for vein selection, as well as for catheter insertion and maintenance care (Marsh, Webster, Mihala & Rickard, 2017). Several studies point to the inadequacy of the technologies and medical devices used in this area, enhancing the occurrence of complications such as infection, phlebitis, occlusion and accidental catheter removal (Braga, 2017; Costa, 2017; Nobre & Martins, 2018). The project investigators aim to determine whether the use of a PIVC pack will significantly reduce associated complications when compared with the usual care. Additionally, the research team aims to determine if the use of a PIVC pack will reduce the number of insertion attempts and overall procedure time, as well as improving patient and provider satisfaction.
