Ultrasound-guided Peripheral Vascular Access in Children

March 4, 2016 updated by: University of Aarhus

Ultrasound-guided Peripheral Vascular Access in Children - a Single- Blind, Randomized, Cross-over Trial

The purpose of this investigation is to conduct a randomized, patient-blinded prospective controlled trial comparing peripheral intravenous cannulation in children done by:

  1. Conventional landmark cannulation where the intravenous cannulation is done by direct visual guidance or palpation or a combination thereof.
  2. 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.
