Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if midline catheters can reduce adverse patient outcomes in adult patients requiring a single vasopressor. The main questions the study aims to answer are:

* Do midline catheters reduce the rates of catheter-related bloodstream infections as compared to central venous catheters?
* Do midline catheters reduce the rates of deep venous thrombosis as compared to central venous catheters? Researchers will compare midline catheters to central venous catheters to see if there is a reduction in these events.

Participants will be randomized to the midline catheter group or the central venous catheter group. The catheters will be part of standard of care for vasopressor therapy. The participants will be followed for 30 days.

Conditions

  • Central Venous Catheter
  • Midline Catheter
  • Complication of Catheter

Interventions

DEVICE

Ultrasound Guided Central Venous Catheter

Patients randomized to this arm will receive an ultrasound guided central venous catheter. The catheter is 20cm in length.

DEVICE

Ultrasound Guided Midline Catheter

Patients randomized to this arm will receive an ultrasound guided midline catheter. The catheter is 8-10cm in length.
