Evaluation of Tissue Glue on PICC and Midline Catheters Insertion Sites

September 8, 2023 updated by: University Hospital Ostrava

Evaluation of a Tissue Glue SecurePortIV on Prevention of Phlebitis and Migration of PICC and Midline Catheters in Adult Patients

The study will evaluate a new type of cyanoacrylate tissue glue Secure PortIV on the insertion site of the PICC (Peripherally inserted central catheter) or Midline catheters. Fixation of the catheter with the tissue glue should prevent incidents of mechanical and infective phlebitis as well as external migrations of the catheters.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

In the study, 125 subjects will receive the new tissue glue Secure PortIV and 125 subjects will be provided standard care. The tissue glue will be applied immediately after insertion. Evaluation and re-evaluation of the site will be done on the first and seventh day after insertion using VIP and CLISA (Central-Line Insertion Site Assessment) scale and on the seventh day with taking a swab from the insertion site; the external length will be measured on the first and the seventh day, in order to observe the migration or not.

The goal of the study is to evaluate the benefits of the cyanoacrylate tissue glue Secure PortIV in the prevention of mechanical and infective phlebitis and external migration of the catheter.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: Standard care - catheter fixation with surgical stitch
In patients indicated for this type of treatment, as per the attending physician, the catheter will be fixed in the standard way, using a surgical stitch.
The catheter will be fixed using the standard procedure - surgical stitch.
Experimental: Experimental - catheter fixation with glue
In patients indicated for this type of treatment, as per the attending physician, the catheter will be fixed using the glue.
The catheter will be fixed using the experimental procedure - novel surgical glue.
