Device: RIVS vascular access
Device: Conventional vascular access
Registration Number
NCT00914069
Lead Sponsor
C. R. Bard
Brief Summary

The study will test a hypothesis that the RIVS system will have a higher rate of successful first PIV placement compared to conventional catheter without a significant increase in complications and time of procedure.

Detailed Description

The hypothesis to be statistically tested was that the RIVS system will have a higher rate of successful first attempt peripheral intravenous placement success as compared to conventional peripheral intravenous catheters without a significant increase in device related complications and procedure time.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
IV Insertion Success Rate at First Attempt IV Insertion Success Rate at First AttemptAn access attempt usually ranges from 0 to 45 minutes in duration.

A successful IV insertion includes all of the following: initial vein penetration, which is visualized by a flash back of blood into the access device, deployment of the guidewire, advancement of the catheter into the vein, retraction of needle and guidewire, and flushing of IV. A secured flushed IV will be indicative of a successful PIV placement.

Summary of Major ComplicationsPost-PIV placement until catheter removal (usually within 4 days)

Any device-related or procedure-related adverse event that causes clinically consequential symptoms to the patient. These may include access site hematoma, bleeding, infection, nerve injury, vessel laceration, wound dehiscence, allergic reaction, or inflammation, among others.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Time Required to Obtain AccessAn access attempt usually ranges from 0 to 45 minutes in duration.

A secured flushed IV will be indicative of a successful PIV placement.

Second Stick Success RateAn access attempt usually ranges from 0 to 45 minutes in duration.

A secured flushed IV will be indicative of a successful PIV placement.

Summary of Minor ComplicationsPost-PIV placement until catheter removal (usually within 4 days)

Any device-related or procedure-related adverse event that causes clinically inconsequential symptoms to the patient.
