Not Applicable
Conditions
Diseases which are needed administration of stimulating drugs
Registration Number
JPRN-jRCTs032210224
Lead Sponsor
Mineo Kurokawa
Brief Summary

This study confirmed the effectiveness of CF reduction by using a new catheter placed on the upper arm vein compared to a short catheter placed on the forearm vein for patients administered irritant drugs. New catheters did not increase the incidence of adverse events and lead to treatment interruption due to device malfunction.
