Can a Year-Long training program make IVs safer for patients?
NCT ID NCT07524608
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This observational study will test a behavioral program designed to improve how nurses and anesthesiologists handle IV catheters. Over three years, one hospital will use the program while another continues usual care. Researchers will track complications like phlebitis and infiltration, and measure staff knowledge. The goal is to see if the program leads to better, safer IV care.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
behavioral intervention (co-designed learning activities and implementation program for nurses and anesthesiologists)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that a structured training and culture-change program reduces complications like phlebitis and infiltration from IV catheters.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a randomized controlled trial, so results may be influenced by other differences between hospitals. The intervention is complex and may not be easily replicated elsewhere.
