Use of Ultrasound to Investigate Tip Dislodgment of Epicutaneous-caval Catheter: a Multicentric Study
In Brief
An observational study for Migration of Implant or Internal Device. Completed, enrolled 217 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This is a non-pharmacological, non-profit, prospective, observational multicenter study. Primarily, the study aims to demonstrate the feasibility of ultrasound methodology to study the secondary malposition of epicutaneous-caval catheters (ECC) in neonates. After obtaining informed consent, the study involves performing ultrasound tip location on newborns who had an ECC placed. This will occur immediately after the placement and, if in a central position, subsequently at 60-120 minutes, 48-72 hours and 6-8 days post-placement. Data will be collected on various variables. Each Center will contribute at least 20 cases to the cohort and all data will be recorded in a database. The study is expected to last for 12 months
