Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
<p>The primary outcome is the first attempt success ratio of peripheral<br /><br>intravenous catheter placement with the use of the Veinplicity® device, when<br /><br>compared to the traditional landmark technique, in patients with a medium-risk<br /><br>profile according to the A-DIVA scale. The outcome of interest is to reach a<br /><br>success ratio of 90% upon inserting a peripheral intravenous catheter by using<br /><br>the Veinplicity® device, in patients with a medium-risk profile according to<br /><br>the A-DIVA scale. </p><br>

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
<p>As secondary objectives, we are interested in the effects on:<br /><br>* The time needed for intravenous cannulation;<br /><br>* Patients satisfaction;<br /><br>* Pain score upon intravenous cannulation;<br /><br>* Practitioners satisfaction;<br /><br>* The relation between the success ratio and patients demographics (age, sex,<br /><br>length, weight, skin color, dominant side, A-DIVA score, medical history and<br /><br>comorbidities);<br /><br>* The relation between the success ratio and procedure related data (size of<br /><br>the vein, size of the inserted catheter, side of cannulation, site of<br /><br>cannulation).</p><br>
