Ultrasound-guided Peripheral Vascular Access in Children
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this investigation is to conduct a randomized, patient-blinded prospective controlled trial comparing peripheral intravenous cannulation in children done by:
-
Conventional landmark cannulation where the intravenous cannulation is done by direct visual guidance or palpation or a combination thereof.
-
Ultrasound guided cannulation by means of DNTP.
The investigators hypothesize that with ultrasound-guided peripheral intravenous cannulation the first-attempt success rate will be significantly higher than by the conventional landmark cannulation technique.
