Use of Ultrasound Guidance to Facilitate Obtaining Peripheral Intravenous Access

Withdrawn before enrolling · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Catheterization, Peripheral

In brief

The purpose of this study is to determine if the use of ultrasound guidance to insert peripheral intravenous catheters will decrease the number of punctures required to successful insertion. The hypothesis is that fewer attempts will be required with the use of ultrasound potentially leading to preservation of vessels, decreased patient pain scores and increased patient/parent satisfaction.
