Ultrasound Assessment for Predicting Optimal Umbilical Venous Catheter Placement

Poland78 participantsStarted 2021-09-22

Plain-language summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the ultrasound assessment of the angle formed between the terminal segment of the Umbilical Venous and the initial segment of the Ductus Venosus (DV)play a role in Umbilical Venous Catheterization (UVC). The main questions it aims to answer are: Can the Umbilical Venous-Ductus Venosus angle on Point-of-care ultrasonography improve the prediction and success of UVC placement in neonates ? The secondary aim was to assess the effectiveness of ultrasound-guided navigation with corrective maneuvers for correct UVC placement.
