Study Summary

Hypothesis The initial use of ultrasound guidance when indicated for difficult peripheral IV access will reduce the number of attempts required to achieve successful peripheral IV insertion and improve patient care and satisfaction.

Primary Outcome

IV insertion success rate comparison on the second IV insertion attempt (after after 1x unsuccessful IV insertion using traditional technique) between traditional technique versus ultrasound guidance for grade 1 and 2a visual vein classification grades. For an 80% powered study to detect a 30% difference in success rate, an N of 50 is required in each group. Outcome will be successful vs unsuccessful IV insertion

Interventions

  • OTHER IV placement using ultrasound guidance vs traditional method
