About this study

Official title: Direct Measurement of Ideal Depth of Central Line for Right Internal Jugular Venous Catheterization in Adults

Total of 89 patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery will be enrolled.

Right CVC insertion begins at their intersection of the cricoid cartilage level and the triangular point where the sternal head of the SCM muscle meets the clavicular head. After insertion the central venous catheter through the right internal jugular vein and positioning it, the location of the tip of the central venous catheter will be confirmed by TEE.

Read the detailed description

Investigator confirms the location of the 2 cm from the junction between right atrium and superior vena cava to the end of the tip of the catheter using TEE, and measures the insertion depth of the catheter at insertion point. It is possible to find the ideal central venous catheter insertion depth in actual clinical practice in adult patient.

The ideal central venous catheter insertion depth can be measured accurately when the end of the central venous catheter is monitored with transesophageal ultrasonography, and it can be derived a meaningful formula for predicting the ideal central venous insertion depth from the patient's height .

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • central venous catheterization through Rt. IJVProcedure or surgery

    • insertion at the intersection of the cricoid cartilage level and the triangular point where the sternal head of the SCM muscle meets the clavicular head
    • placement of the tip of the catheter 2 cm away from the junction between right atrium and superior vena cava using TEE

Study groups in NCT03116724
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
CVC catheterization through Rt. IJVExperimentalThe depth of central venous catheter during central venous catheterization through Rt. IJV will be decided by using real-time TEE. The position of tip of CVC will be guided by TEE to fit the tip at 2 cm away from the junction between right atrium and superior vena cava.
Receives: Procedure: central venous catheterization through Rt. IJV

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. depth of the central venous catheter in right internal jugular vein

    Measured: at time of insertion of the central venous catheter

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing central venous catheterization through Rt. IJV in people with Patient Safety During Central Venous Catheterization, run by Keimyung University Dongsan Medical Center at 1 site in South Korea.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Jun 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

depth of the central venous catheter in right internal jugular vein (time frame: at time of insertion of the central venous catheter). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Jun 2020.
