Not Applicable
Completed
- Conditions
- Short Peripheral Venous Catheter
- Interventions
- Device: short peripheral venous catheter
- Registration Number
- NCT03290573
- Lead Sponsor
- The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University
- Brief Summary
Up to 90% of catheters fail before therapy is complete. Improved dwell time of intravenous catheters for even small increments of time would further reduce the number of insertions, staff workloads, and costs. In this study, the investigators investigated whether short peripheral venous catheter site of insertion influence the dwell time.
