Assessing Validity of M-Mode Time-to-Turbulence "T2T" Echo Use to Confirm CVC Tip Position

NCT03058445 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 25

Last updated 2017-02-23

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Using an ultrasound echocardiography , we will measure the time to turbulance "T2T" from injecting saline into the central venous catheter CVC to the appeareance of turbulance on the screen using an MMode. The T2T will be compared with Chest X Ray "CXR" measured distance from the tip of the CVC to the carina.

We are trying to evaluate if there is a significant correlation between the two measurements.
