Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare catheter length and extravasation rates for Ultrasound (US)-guided peripheral intravenous (IV) catheter insertion in a subset of emergency department patients with difficult IV access. Physicians, Emergency RNs, and Emergency Technicians can be taught to use US guidance to start peripheral IV in the ED. The optimal length of catheter to use for this procedure is unknown. This study will provide data on the length of catheter required to minimize extravasation. There is no guideline on catheter length selection for US-guided peripheral vascular access. This study may decrease extravasation rates for US-guided peripheral vascular access by providing guidance on catheter length selection.
