About this study

The study will evaluate 2 strategies to remove central venous catheter (CVC): in one part, the insertion of a midline catheter and in the other part, the conventional insertion of peripheral venous catheter (PVC)

Read the detailed description

Patients will be randomised when the last indication for CVC has disappeared, which means parenteral nutrition or vasopressors administration.

They will be randomised either in the midline group or in the PVC group.

  • In the midline group, a midline catheter will try to be inserted before the 48th hour after last indication for CVC disappeared.
  • In the PVC group: a PVC will try to be inserted before the 48th hour after last indication for CVC disappeared.

If successful, CVC will then be removed. If not, a PVC will try to be inserted daily till success or worthlessness of a venous line or death.

The presence of a CVC will be assessed at the 96th hour after disappearance of last CVC indication.

Being tested
Midline, PVC

What participants receive

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

  • MidlineDevice

    Patient will receive a Midline catheter within 48h after disappearance of indication for CVC

  • PVCDevice

    Also called Conventional catheterization

    Patient will receive a standard PVC within 48h after disappearance of indication for CVC

What is being measured

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

  1. % of patient with a successful Removal of CVC at the 96th hour after disappearance of last indication for CVC

    A successful removal of CVC is defined as

    • success of midline/PVC insertion at H96 and consequently CVC removal
    • and no necessity for insertion of a new CVC within the 96 first hours

    Measured: H96 : 96th hour after disappearance of last indication for CVC

Secondary outcomes (13)
  1. Total number of puncture required for the insertion of a peripheral catheter

    Measured: until 28 days after randomisation

  2. Total number of peripheral catheter used

    Measured: until 28 days after randomisation

  3. Number of new CVC inserted

    Measured: until 28 days after randomisation

  4. Time consumption

    Total time of catheterisation, (measured from the entrance in patient room, to the exit)

    Measured: until 28 days after randomisation

  5. Number of blood culture for research of catheter-related bloodstream infection (CRBSI)

    Measured: until 28 days after randomisation

  6. CVC dwell time

    Time of central catheter duration (hours)

    Measured: from disappearance of CVC indication to last CVC removal or 28 days after randomisation if still in place

  7. Number of CVC colonized for per 1000 CVC /days

    Measured: until 28 days after randomisation

  8. Number of CVC-associated bacteremia

    Measured: until 28 days after randomisation

  9. Number of peripheral catheter-associated bacteremia

    Measured: until 28 days after randomisation

  10. ICU length of stay

    Measured: Until discharge from ICU, an expected average of 12 days

  11. Hospital length of stay

    Hospital stay in medical and surgical unit (no follow-up and rehabilitation care unit or long stay)

    Measured: Until discharge from hospital, an expected average of 20 days

  12. ICU mortality

    Measured: Until discharge from ICU, an expected average of 12 days

  13. hospital mortality

    mortality in medical and surgical unit (no SSR or long stay)

    Measured: Until discharge from hospital, an expected average of 20 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Midline and PVC in people with Vascular Access Device, run by Centre Hospitalier Departemental Vendee at 1 site in France.

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 6 inclusion and 15 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Mar 2023. 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 France. 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 was stopped early (reason given: recruitment problem). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

% of patient with a successful Removal of CVC at the 96th hour after disappearance of last indication for CVC (time frame: H96 : 96th hour after disappearance of last indication for CVC). 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 22 Mar 2023; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
