Summary

This study will enroll up to 192 children less than 18 years of age, who will receive electrocardiographic guidance for placement of a PICC in addition to radiography done as standard care. The investigators will determine the location of the PICC tip from both ECG and radiograph, and then measure the degree of correlation between the two methods.

Conditions

  • Venous Insufficiency

Interventions

DEVICE

C3 Wave ECG-based PICC Tip Confirmation System

The C3 Wave PICC tip detection system will be used to identify catheter tip location during the procedural placement of the catheter. This system includes an ECG monitor that will be connected to the guidewire used for catheter placement. The changes in the ECG tracing will guide correct catheter placement.
