Ultrasound Assessment for Predicting Optimal Umbilical Venous Catheter Placement

NCT07434102 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 78

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the ultrasound assessment of the angle formed between the terminal segment of the Umbilical Venous and the initial segment of the Ductus Venosus (DV)play a role in Umbilical Venous Catheterization (UVC). The main questions it aims to answer are:

Can the Umbilical Venous-Ductus Venosus angle on Point-of-care ultrasonography improve the prediction and success of UVC placement in neonates ? The secondary aim was to assess the effectiveness of ultrasound-guided navigation with corrective maneuvers for correct UVC placement.

Conditions

  • Anatomy of the Ductus Venosus
  • Umbilical Venous Catheterization

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Ultrasound assessment of UV-DV angle

Ultrasound measurement of the umbilical vein-ductus venosus (UV-DV) angle in neonates undergoing umbilical venous catheter placement, with assessment according to catheter tip position.

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Ultrasound-guided corrective maneuvers for UVC placement

Real-time ultrasound-guided corrective maneuvers were performed to reposition umbilical venous catheters initially located in a low position, with advancement of the catheter toward the correct anatomical location.
