Study Overview

Brief Summary

This study will evaluate whether applying micro drops of cyanoacrylate glue to the participant's peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) insertion site prior to covering the area of PICC line with a transparent film dressing will make the PICC dressing last longer and prevent an occurrence of PICC line moving out of its original placement. The investigators aims to evaluate whether 1) using the cyanoacrylate glue will lengthen the time to first dressing change; and 2) participants in the experimental arm (glue used) will have fewer dressing changes per week compared to the control arm (standard care) during admission.

Detailed Description

The neonatal population poses a unique challenge due to the small surface area of PICC sites, underdeveloped skin layer, and inability to contain the child's movements during a dressing change.

PICC line migration is the most common complication of PICC line maintenance in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Previous studies have found that the PICC migration/dislodgment mostly occurs during PICC dressing changes among the neonatal population.

Recent published studies demonstrated that medical tissue adherence glue, Cyanoacrylate, significantly reduces the incidences of catheter migration and insertion site bleeding of PICC lines in all age of patients including premature infants.

The proposed study is a randomized control study with aimed data collection of 60 participants; of the 60 participants, 50 participants' data are to be used for statistical analysis and additional 10 participants to account for withdrawals.

The participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: one (the control group) receiving our standard PICC dressing method and the other (the study group) receiving cyanoacrylate glue at the PICC insertion sites prior to applying a standard transparent film dressing over the PICC sites.

Inclusion Criteria

  • All patients admitted to the 9 North intensive coronary care unit (ICCU) at NewYork-Presbyterian Morgan Stanley Children's Hospital greater than 35 weeks of corrected gestational age who have a PICC line placed by a NICU provider.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Any patient with a PICC line in situ from an outside hospital.
  • Any patient with a PICC line placed by an outside department, namely the interventional radiology department.
  • Any patient with a PICC line that is silicon material catheter, such as Vygon Epicutaneo-Cava catheter because of limited accuracy of measuring a movement of the catheter migration after 25 centimeter mark due to absence of a centimeter mark on the catheter.

Arms & Interventions

Control Group

Active Comparator

This group will be received the current standard of care (SOC) dressing method for PICC lines.

Intervention: Standard transparent film dressing (Device)

Cyanoacrylate Glue Group

Experimental

This group will receive a few drops of cyanoacrylate glue on PICC line site prior to application of usual standard film dressing over the PICC line site.

Intervention: Cyanoacrylate glue (Device)

Cyanoacrylate Glue Group

Experimental

This group will receive a few drops of cyanoacrylate glue on PICC line site prior to application of usual standard film dressing over the PICC line site.

Intervention: Standard transparent film dressing (Device)

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Duration of Longevity of PICC Line Dressing

Time Frame: Up to 7 days

Duration of longevity defined as the number of days the PICC line dressing lasts from the scheduled dressing change.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Number of PICC Line Migrations(Until PICC line removal (approximately 12 weeks))

A controlled study examining CBT for bereaved children.The death of a loved one in childhood and adolescence is a risk factor for distress and dysfunction. This event has been associated with increased emotional problems including elevated depression, anxiety, and posttraumatic stress, as well as somatic complaints and behavioural problems (Dowdney, 2008Kaplow, Layne, & Pynoos, 2012). An estimated 5% to 10% of children, experience clinically significant psychiatric problems following loss, including major depression, posttraumatic stress-disorder (PTSD), and Prolonged Grief Disorder (PGD) (Melhem, Moritz, Walker, Shear, & Brent, 2007Melhem, Porta, Shamseddeen, Walker, & Brent, 2011).PGD encompasses several symptoms including separation distress, preoccupation with thoughts about the lost person, a sense of purposelessness about the future, numbness, bitterness, difficulties accepting the loss and difficulty moving on with life without the lost person (Prigerson et al., 2009Shear et al., 2011). Although PGD has mostly been studied among adults, a growing body of empirical studies has shown that children and adolescents can develop PGD symptoms, that can be reliably assessed, are distinct from normal grief, depression and anxiety, including PTSD, and are predictive of significant concomitant internalizing and externalizing problems (Brown & Goodman, 2005Dillen, Fontaine, & Verhofstadt-Denève, 2008Spuij, Prinzie et al., 2012Spuij, Reitz et al., 2012). Evidence that, in a small percentage of people, acute grief reactions turn into chronic debilitating distress, blocking reestablishment of normal routines, will likely lead to the inclusion of two bereavement-related disorders in the DSM-5, namely Adjustment Disorder Related to Bereavement, located in its main text, and Persistent Complex Bereavement-Related Disorder, located in its appendix (APA, 2000APA, 2012for discussions see Boelen & Prigerson, 2012Kaplow et al., 2012Wakefield, 2012).
