New ICU monitoring system aims to stop painful IV problems
NCT ID NCT07046624
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new infusion monitoring system designed to help nurses catch complications like phlebitis, infiltration, and extravasation early in ICU patients. Researchers will compare complication rates before and after using the system in 102 patients. The goal is to see if the system improves early detection and reduces harm.
