Evaluation of the Occurrence of Acute Complications Caused by a Central Venous Catheter Placement (VVC)

September 11, 2014 updated by: Centre Leon Berard

Evaluation of the Occurrence of Acute Complications Caused by a Central Venous Catheter Placement: Observational, Prospective, Monocentric Study

It is an observational, prospective, monocentric study. The purpose of the study is to assess the acute complications rate caused by a central venous catheter placement.

All the patients who require a central venous placement could be enrolled in the study.

The study will not change the usual practice. The placement will be on day 1 and patients will be contacted by phone on day 7 to identify potential complications and to assess pain.

Anaesthesia staff will keep patients under surveillance to control the absence of late complications.
