Intravenous Neonatal Central Access Safety Trial
Particulate contamination due to infusion therapy (administration of parenteral nutrition and medications) carries a potential health risk for infants in neonatal intensive care units (NICU). In-line filtration is increasingly used in critically-ill infants but its benefits, by preventing micro-particle infusion in neonates, remain to be demonstrated. In-line filters in the …
Heparinization vs Salinization of the Peripheral Venous Catheter
Randomized, double-blind clinical trial to compare the efficacy of catheter sealing with saline, compared to low-dose heparin. 3,450 patients hospitalized at the Hospital Residencia Sant Camil, in Catalonia (Spain), will be randomized to each branch of study. The primary outcome will be the percentage of catheters removed due to obstruction …
Tunneled Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC) in Adult Patients and Associated Outcomes
The aim of this multicenter randomized clinical trial is to compare the tunneling technique of PICC insertion with the non-tunneled insertion technique in the incidence of the combined or isolated outcome of catheter-related bloodstream primary infection, thrombosis, obstruction, and accidental dislodgement in the adult population within a period of up …
Long Peripheral Intravenous Catheter Insertion Site and Catheter-related Complications in Antimicrobial Therapy
This study applies long PIVCs to patients undergoing antimicrobial therapy, and compares the effects of different placement sites, aiming to provide a reference basis for patients undergoing antimicrobial treatment to select the optimal placement site, thus reducing complications, prolonging catheter retention time, and alleviating the patient's pain.
Nylon Versus Polyurethane Epidural Catheters In Patients Undergoing Major Orthopedic Surgery
Objectives: To compare the safety and efficacy of nylon (polyamide) epidural catheter versus polyurethane epidural catheter in patients undergoing major orthopedic surgery under continuous epidural anesthesia. Background: Continuous epidural anesthesia is the most common anesthetic technique used in orthopedic surgery. However, the use of epidural catheters is associated with complications. …
Heart Rate Variability and Anxiety During Urinary Bladder Catheterization
This is a prospective, randomised study investigating the physical and psychological experience of intermittent catheterization in adult individuals following spinal cord injury (SCI).
Safe and Fast Radial Hemostasis Using Synergistic Strategies: SAFE & FAST Trial
The Safe and Fast Radial Hemostasis using Synergistic Strategies (SAFE & FAST) trial is an interventional study aimed at reducing the incidence of radial artery occlusion (RAO) rebound bleeding, and the required compression time after transradial approach (TRA) procedures, which have become the default access for coronary procedures globally. The …
Evaluation of the Novel Silq ClearTract Catheter in Patients With Chronic Urinary Retention
To assess the ability of the Silq ClearTract™ 100% Silicone 2-Way Foley Catheter to reduce catheter associated complications in subjects that require a long-term indwelling Foley catheter when compared to other commercially available Foley catheters.
Verification of the Correct Insertion of a Central Venous Catheter
The investigators propose a prospective diagnostic validity study in which the correct location of the central venous catheter will be verified by ultrasound and then verified by radiography in the same patient, without modifying the usual clinical practice criteria.
Contact Activation of Coagulation in Newly Inserted Central Venous Catheters
A central venous catheter (CVC) is a thin plastic tube placed into one of the body's large veins, typically in the neck or near the clavicle. CVCs are crucial for administering medications, fluids, and secure blood samples. Although CVCs are an essential tool in healthcare, there are certain risks and …
