NCT ID NCT06885073
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- CPMX2 device
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could lead to a safer, needle-free way to measure central venous pressure in children, reducing infection and injury risks.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small early pilot study, so the device may not be accurate enough to replace catheters. It is only tested in children who already have a catheter, so results may not apply to all patients.
