2 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The purpose of this study is to assess the utility of an augmented reality virtual ruler during placement of peripherally inserted central catheters.
Insertion of peripherally inserted central catheters (PICCs) at the bedside may result in tip malposition. This study was designed to evaluate whether the addition of ultrasound (US) inspection of the ipsilateral neck provides immediate recognition of PICCs in aberrant position facilitating catheter reposition prior to completion of the procedure.
