No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Objective: To evaluate color Doppler flow ultrasound compared to standard clinical techniques, to detect the correct position of peripheral intravenous catheters in adult surgical patients.

Methods: A prospective study is conducted in adult (\>18 years old) patients scheduled to undergo elective surgery. Peripheral intravenous catheter position is evaluated with standard clinical techniques (free flow of fluid from a hanging bag, easy saline injection, and aspiration of blood), and with color flow Doppler ultrasound proximal to the insertion site. Comparative test performance is carried out.
