Detailed Description

After being informed about the study, patients who require image guided intravenous access and give consent will have their intravenous catheter placed by a physician wearing mixed reality smart glasses. The mixed reality smart glasses will have an application that allows the physician to view the ultrasound images in a virtual monitor. The physician will then use the images viewed on this virtual monitor to guide placement of the intravenous catheter.

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Other
  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Augmented Reality
Subjects in this group will have their intravenous catheter placed while the physician uses a mixed reality headset to view the ultrasound images being used to guide the catheter placement.
Mixed reality smart glasses will be used to view a virtual monitor which mirrors the ultrasound screen in real-time.
Other Names:
  • Microsoft HoloLens
No Intervention: Control
Subjects in this group will have their intravenous catheter placed using standard of care. The physician will use the monitor on the ultrasound machine only to view the ultrasound images being used to guide the catheter placement.
