New catheter guidance tech tested in cancer patients
NCT ID NCT07369427
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at two ways to place a thin, flexible tube (called a PICC) in cancer patients who need long-term IV treatments. One method uses magnetic tracking, and the other uses heart signals (ECG) to guide the tube to the right spot. Researchers want to see which method works better on the first try, takes less time, and leads to fewer problems like blood clots or infections. About 176 people will take part.
