Study arms

  • Experimental
    Infiltrated Tissue

    The ivWatch Model 400 monitored an IV site during the infiltration of 10 mL of isotonic saline solution. IV sites were placed in the forearm and the dorsal aspect of the hand. The rate of the infiltration ranged between 5 mL/hr to 150 mL/hr.

    Device: The ivWatch Model 400

Interventions

  • DeviceThe ivWatch Model 400

    The ivWatch Model 400 monitored the site during the course of the infiltration and issued red and/or yellow notifications if an infiltration was detected.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Red Notification Sensitivity to Infiltrated Tissues

    The ratio of the number of infiltrated IV sites where the ivWatch Model 400 device issued a red notification to the total number of infiltrated IV sites in the study. All infiltrations were limited to 10 mL of isotonic saline solution.

    Time frame: After each participant has been infiltrated, an expected average of 1 hour

Secondary outcomes

  1. Yellow Notification Sensitivity to Infiltrated Tissues

    The ratio of the number of infiltrated IV sites where the ivWatch Model 400 device issued a yellow notification to the total number of infiltrated IV sites in the study. All infiltrations were limited to 10 mL of isotonic saline solution.

    Time frame: After each participant has been infiltrated, an expected average of 1 hour

  2. Infiltrated Volume When Red Notification Issued

    The amount of infiltrated isotonic saline solution when the red notification was issued by the ivWatch Model 400 device.

    Time frame: After each participant has been infiltrated, an expected average of 1 hour

  3. Infiltrated Volume When Yellow Notification Issued

    The amount of infiltrated isotonic saline solution when the yellow notification was issued by the ivWatch Model 400 device.

    Time frame: After each participant has been infiltrated, an expected average of 1 hour

  4. Significant Skin Irritation or Disruption to Skin Integrity

    The number of IV sites that indicated significant skin irritation or disruption to skin integrity assessed at the end of the study.

    Time frame: After each participant has been infiltrated, an expected average of 1 hour
