Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The current COVID-19 pandemic, this is especially since the transmission of SARS-CoV-2 is thought to occur mainly through respiratory droplets generated by coughing and sneezing, by direct contact with contaminated surfaces and because in a large number of patients COVID-19 disease may be asymptomatic. As recommended by the CDC medical personnel should be equipped with full personal protective equipment (PPE) for AGP in contact with suspected/confirmed COVID-19 patient. Therefore, it is reasonable to search for the most effective methods of intravascular access in those conditions.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Standard of Care (Intravenous Cannula)

obtaining intravascular access using a ready standard intravenous cannula

Device: Intravenous access
obtaining intravascular access using a standard intravenous cannula
Other Names:
  • IV
  • Experimental: IO access using NIO® set

    receive an IO line in the proximal tibia localization. IO lines are placed using an FDA-approved device called an NIO®.

    Device: Intraosseous access
    obtaining intravascular access using a ready intravenous NIO needle set
    Other Names:
  • IO
  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. successful rate of first intravascular access attempt [1 day]

      successful placement of intravascular device

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. time to successful access [1 day]

    2. number of attempts to successful access [1 day]

      number of attempts to successful access

    3. time to infusion [1 day]

      time to therapy including but not limited to time to fluids, antibiotics, and antiarrythmics

    4. complication rates [1 day]

      complication rates

    5. ease of use [1 day]

      self-reported percentage the vocal cord visualization. A 100% score is a extremely difficult procedure. A Ease of use score of 1% means that procedure is extremely easy

    6. Preferred intravascular access method [1 day]

      participants were asked which method of intravascular access they would prefer in a real-life resuscitation.
