What is being measured

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

  1. Number of patients with catheter related complications

    Patients having any complication specified as secondary endpoints

    Measured: From CVC insertion until CVC withdrawal

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Number of patients with CRBSI

    Measured: From CVC insertion until CVC withdrawal

  4. Number of CVC exchanges per patient due to suspected infection or thrombosis

    Reported as incidence

    Measured: From CVC insertion until CVC withdrawal

  5. Number of patients with stop or slower flow in any CVC lumen

    Stop or slower flow or need of high pressure during blood sample withdrawal and/or injection of solution

    Measured: From CVC insertion until CVC withdrawal

  6. Number of patients with local thrombosis

    Local thrombosis - thrombosis in the insertion vein

    Measured: From CVC insertion until CVC withdrawal

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?

Number of patients with catheter related complications (time frame: From CVC insertion until CVC withdrawal). 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.
