Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Patient Satisfaction with Procedure [Immediately after procedure/Baseline]

    Score describes a patient's satisfaction with a healthcare decision. It measures satisfaction across 6 domains via 6 questions scored on a 5 point scale. Score ranges from 6 to 30. A low score signifies dissatisfaction, a high score signifies high satisfaction.

  2. Patient Satisfaction with Procedure [At 48 Hours Post Baseline]

    Score describes a patient's satisfaction with a healthcare decision. It measures satisfaction across 6 domains via 6 questions scored on a 5 point scale. Score ranges from 6 to 30. A low score signifies dissatisfaction, a high score signifies high satisfaction.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Number of needle punctures in a 24 hour period (patient reported) [up to 48 hours]

  2. Duration of Successful Access [up to 48 hours]

    IV/Cath dwell time in hours

  3. Number of Needle Sticks [up to 48 hours]

    Prior to gaining successful access

  4. Number of Insertion Attempts [up to 48 hours]

    For ultrasound guided access

  5. Emergency Department (ED) Length of Stay [up to 48 hours]

    in hours

  6. Hospital Length of Stay [up to 48 hours]

    in hours

  7. Patient Satisfaction [immediately post intervention/baseline and at 48 hours past baseline]

    this is a single question measuring satisfaction with the intervention overall on a Likert Scale 1-10,

  8. Number of Insertion Related Complications [up to 48 hours]

    Includes failed attempts, arterial punctures, infiltrations, hematoma formations

  9. Number of Dwell Related Complications [up to 48 hours]

    Includes inability to flush, catheter dislodgement, leakage around the catheter site, insertion site erythema, insertion site pain, drainage from catheter, edema, ecchymosis, superficial thrombosis, Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), line associated infection, vesicant extravasation, skin necrosis, neurovascular injury, arterial injury

  10. Time to Access [up to 24 hours]

    minutes from procedure start to procedure completion
