ivWatch in Prevention of Extravasation of Vesicants in an Oncology Setting

Study Number

2794222

Phase

N/A

Age Group

Adult

Principal Investigator

Andrew Storer

Purpose

This study aims to determine the feasibility of using the ivWatch (registered trademark) device to determine if there is an infiltration at the site of a peripheral intravenous (PIV) catheter. An infiltration is when the IV fluid leaks out of a vein and into the surrounding tissue. If medication starts leaking outside the vein, it can cause damage to the surrounding tissue. Using the ivWatch device may identify leaking fluid before the nurse is able to visually observe the signs or symptoms of the leaking fluid.
