Non-Luer Butterfly Needle With One-way Valve for the Epidural Blood Patch: Does it Alter Blood Clotting?

Post-Dural Puncture Headache Clinical Trial

Official title:
Serum Blood Clotting Changes During Blood Sampling Via Non-luer One-way Filter Valve Intravenous Needle: Implication on the Epidural Blood Patch Procedure

Clinical Trial Summary

The Department of Health recommends using equipment which prevents wrong route drug administration. However, the epidural blood patch requires equipment that connects to the intravenous and epidural route. To comply with these recommendations a non-Luer butterfly needle with one-way valve has been produced. The one-way valve and length of tubing has the potential to activate the clotting cascade. This could reduce the time clinicians have to utilise the blood in the syringe. Also any alteration in clotting could affect the therapeutic value of the epidural blood patch. The primary objective of this research was to determine if phlebotomy using this new 21G needle altered blood clotting, determined by thromboelastograph analysis, compared to a standard 21G hypodermic needle.

Clinical Trial Description

Ethical approval was gained from the Health Research Authority (North West - Greater Manchester South Research Ethics Committee, REC Reference Number: 16/NW/0570). After informed consent, we enrolled participants ;
