Summary

Around 1.5 billion peripheral intravenous catheters (PIVCs) are sold yearly, with up to 90% of hospitalized patients receiving one, yet failure rates can reach 69%, often due to phlebitis, infiltration, occlusion, or dislodgement. These complications can collectively be named mechanical complications. This study aims to assess a new device's effectiveness in reducing mechanical complications associated with PIVCs through a non-inferiority randomized trial at two sites. A total of 548 patients will be recruited, with primary outcomes focused on complication rates and secondary outcomes examining adverse events, healthcare feedback, and economic impacts.
