Novel Device for Ultrasound-guided Pediatric Vessel Cannulations
Clear Guide Medical
Summary
Clinical Trial to investigate whether the use of a novel device to be used in conjunction with ultrasound in pediatric vessel cannulations is superior to ultrasound-only pediatric vessel cannulations in terms of number of cannulation attempts.
Description
Use of needle guidance plus ultrasound imaging for CVC placement in the pediatric high-risk population may facilitate the procedure with a single needle pass and decrease the incidence of adverse effects by minimizing additional needle passes. This study will compare the use of ultrasound-only guidance with the Clear Guide SCENERGY guidance in terms of successful first-attempt vessel cannulations such as internal jugular and fermoral artery access. The question is whether it is possible to make ultrasound-guided pediatric vascular access less technically challenging in order to improve adoptio…
