Point-of-care Ultrasound for Difficult Peripheral Vascular Access in the Emergency Department - a Randomized Controlled Trial
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating bi-plane sonographic view to difficult peripheral vascular access using Butterfly iQ+® for Vascular Access and Emergencies. Completed, enrolled 442 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Peripheral intravenous line insertion is the most commonly performed invasive procedure in the emergency department (ED). The research hypothesis is that a biplane sonographic approach (i.e., an out-of-plane and in-plane view) might be superior to a mono-plane approach (i.e., an out-of-plane or in-plane view) obtaining a peripheral vascular access among difficult patients admitted to the ED

Timeline
Interventions
Bi-plane Butterfly iQ+® sonographic visualization will be used to help Emergency Department operators to get a venous peripheral access in a population of patients considered difficult for this task based on their history or the present clinical situation.
