NCT07509359
This prospective randomized controlled trial aims to compare basilic vein and cephalic vein approaches for midline catheter placement in pediatric patients undergoing general anesthesia. Participants aged 2 to 17 years who require midline catheter insertion will be randomly assigned 1:1 to either the basilic vein group or the cephalic vein group. The primary outcome is the clinical blood sampling success rate during the catheter dwell period, defined as successful aspiration of ≥2 mL of blood through the midline catheter at least once without additional venipuncture. Secondary outcomes include operator-rated difficulty, number of puncture attempts, first attempt cannulation success rate, vein diameter and depth, catheter dwell time, catheter-related complications, and patient satisfaction. A total of 96 participants (48 per arm) will be enrolled at Seoul National University Children's Hospital.

Peripherally Inserted Central Catheters (PICCs) are frequently used in hospitalized children who require prolonged vascular access; however, concerns regarding their inappropriate use and contribution to serious complications such as central line associated blood stream infection (CLABSI) and venous thromboembolism (VTE) have triggered exploration of safer alternatives. Long Peripheral Catheters (LPCs) have been recently adopted by some institutions due to fewer complications as compared to PICCs. The investigators hypothesize that LPCs could be safer alternatives to PICCs for medium-term vascular access (5-14 days) in the appropriate cohort of hospitalized pediatric patients. The primary objective of the proposed clinical effectiveness pilot trial is to test the feasibility of a full-scale effectiveness trial comparing PICCs to LPCs in hospitalized pediatric patients. The investigators aim to identify a population in which LPCs are safe and effective alternatives to PICCs for medium-term, non-central vascular access; data that will inform the design of a full-scale effectiveness study. The investigators plan to engage patients and families as advisors in vascular access device selection by understanding their experience with vascular access device placement and maintenance. Over time, use of LPCs should result in decreased inappropriate PICC utilization with a concomitant decrease in serious complications such as CLABSI and VTE.
NCT06566495
The purpose of this study was to compare microbial contamination on the surface of reusable stasis after indefinite use, 2 weeks and 4 weeks. We investigated how the site - the operating theater and the emergency department, as well as the time of use - affects the number of organisms.
