The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of a continuous needle tracking system on the accuracy, speed, and quality of ultrasound-guided peripheral venous catheter insertion.
A pilot study using simulated tissue was conducted with 49 US-based emergency department nurses to compare insertion of a midline catheter using traditional ultrasound guidance versus an advanced needle-tracking technology along with traditional ultrasound guidance.
