Prospective Observational Study of the Power PICC Family of Devices and Accessories

Completed
Conditions
Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter
Interventions
Device: Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter
Registration Number
NCT04263649
Lead Sponsor
Becton, Dickinson and Company
Brief Summary

Post-market, observational study to collect prospective data related to the safety and performance of the Power PICC family of devices and its accessories in a real-world setting.

Detailed Description

Single-arm, post-market, observational, prospective study to asses the safety and performance of the Power PICC Power PICC family of devices and its accessories in a real-world setting. The study will only enroll patients that need a Power PICC catheter as part of their medical care. Patients will be followed from insertion through removal, or up to 180 days (whichever comes first). Data collected will be gathered from the patient's medical chart.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Primary Safety: Incidence of Symptomatic Venous Thrombosis in Patients With a Device From the BD PowerPICC Family Used for Both Short- and Long-term Venous Access.from insertion though removal or 180 days, whichever comes first

Incidence of symptomatic venous thrombosis defined as any new occurrence of symptomatic venous thrombosis defined by thrombus presence by ultrasonography or other imaging.

Primary Performance: Percent of PICCs That Remain in Place Through the Required Therapy Time Period.from insertion though removal or 180 days, whichever comes first

PICCs remaining in place through the required therapy time period were defined as PICCs that were either still in place at the end of the 180-day observation or had been removed because the therapy was completed (end of useful medical use), changed or cancelled. Most patients who died during the study had the device still in place at the time of death and hence were considered as having completed the therapy.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Secondary Safety: Incidence of Catheter-related Bloodstream Infection.from insertion though removal or 180 days, whichever comes first

Incidence of Catheter-related bloodstream infection where Catheter-related bloodstream infection is defined as positive blood culture(s) with a microorganism not related to another source (e.g., UTI) OR positive blood culture(s) with microorganism matching catheter tip culture OR blood cultures from peripheral venous puncture and PICC positive with the same microorganism.

Secondary Safety: Incidence of Accidental Dislodgement.from insertion though removal or 180 days, whichever comes first

Incidence of Accidental dislodgement where Accidental dislodgement is defined as catheter accidentally dislodged the extent to which it requires replacement.

Secondary Safety: Incidence of Vessel Laceration.from insertion though removal or 180 days, whichever comes first

Incidence of vessel laceration where vessel laceration is defined as a tear in the tissue of the vessel.

Secondary Safety: Incidence of Phlebitisfrom insertion though removal or 180 days, whichever comes first

Incidence of phlebitis where phlebitis is defined inflammation of the cannulated vessel identified by redness, swelling, warmth, tenderness, and/or cord formation

Secondary Safety: Incidence of Local Infectionfrom insertion though removal or 180 days, whichever comes first

Incidence of any new occurrence of local infection

Secondary Performance: Percent of Patent Cathetersfrom insertion though removal or 180 days, whichever comes first

Percent of patent catheters defined as the number of functional catheters through therapy/total number of catheters.

Secondary Performance - Usability: Ease of Insertionduring the insertion procedure

Ease of insertion determined by composite score of guidewire/stylet performance based on post-insertion survey (5 point Likert scale)

Secondary Safety: Incidence of Extravasationfrom insertion though removal or 180 days, whichever comes first

Incidence of extravasation where extravasation is defined as accidental infiltration of a vesicant or chemotherapeutic drug into the tissue around the catheter

Secondary Safety: Incidence of Local Infection as Presence of Pus at the Exit Site and/or Culture Confirmed Site Infectionfrom insertion though removal or 180 days, whichever comes first

Incidence of local infection where local infection is defined as presence of pus at the exit site and/or culture confirmed site infection

Secondary Safety: Incidence of Vessel Perforation.from insertion though removal or 180 days, whichever comes first

Incidence of vessel perforation where vessel perforation is defined as a hole formed in the vessel.

Secondary Performance: Percent of Placement Success in Single Insertion Attemptduring the insertion procedure

Percent of placement success in single insertion attempt defined as placement success defined as single insertion attempt, proper tip location, and patent catheter
