Study Summary

This trial will test whether or not an augmented reality virtual ruler can help place peripherally inserted central catheters.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for adults over 18 who are scheduled to have a non-emergency peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) placed in Interventional Radiology. It's not for anyone under 18 or those needing an emergency PICC placement.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study is testing the use of an augmented reality virtual ruler to see if it can improve safety and clinical workflow during the placement of PICCs, which are used for long-term medication administration.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since this trial involves a non-invasive tool (augmented reality ruler), there aren't direct side effects like with medications. However, there may be indirect issues related to incorrect PICC placement if the tool doesn't work as expected.
