Randomized Control Study to Evaluate Impact of the Use of Cyanoacrylate Glue on PICC Line Dressing Care in the Infant Cardiac Care Unit at Children's Hospital of New York
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Cyanoacrylate glue and Standard transparent film dressing for Central Line Complication and Neonatal Disease. Completed, enrolled 32 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This study will evaluate whether applying micro drops of cyanoacrylate glue to the participant's peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) insertion site prior to covering the area of PICC line with a transparent film dressing will make the PICC dressing last longer and prevent an occurrence of PICC line moving out of its original placement. The investigators aims to evaluate whether 1) using the cyanoacrylate glue will lengthen the time to first dressing change; and 2) participants in the experimental arm (glue used) will have fewer dressing changes per week compared to the control arm (standard care) during admission.

Interventions
Adhesive to be applied on the PICC line site prior to usual standard film dressing over the site, such as SecurePortIV® Catheter Securement Adhesive by Adhezion Biomedical® Cyanoacrylate adhesive that is FDA-approved for securement of vascular access devices. Securement method that provides microbial protection by sealing the insertion site.
A standard transparent polyurethane film dressing, such as 3M TEGADERM Film, for dressing the PICC line area.
