Brief Summary:
A single arm study of 40 adult volunteers to assess the safety and efficacy of the ivWatch Model 400 when observing non-infiltrated (normal) tissues at common peripheral IV therapy sites.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Infiltration of Peripheral IV Therapy Device: ivWatch Model 400 Not Applicable

Study Type : Interventional  (Clinical Trial)
Actual Enrollment : 43 participants
Allocation: N/A
Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment
Masking: None (Open Label)
Primary Purpose: Diagnostic
Official Title: ivWatch Model 400: Device Validation for Non-Infiltrated Tissues
Study Start Date : January 2014
Actual Primary Completion Date : January 2014
Actual Study Completion Date : January 2014

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Non-Infiltrated Tissue
The ivWatch Model 400 monitored a common peripheral IV site over a 24 hour observation period.
Device: ivWatch Model 400
The ivWatch Model 400 monitored tissue at common IV sites over a 24 hour period.




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Normal Tissue Red Notification Rate [ Time Frame: 24 hours ]
    The ivWatch Model 400 issues red notifications to communicate the need for a clinician to check an IV site. A red notification suggests an increased likelihood that an IV infiltration may be occurring, with a greater likelihood relative to a yellow notification. This measure describes the average number of red notifications issued by the ivWatch device in a given day when monitoring normal, non-infiltrated tissues. The 95% confidence interval for the red notification rate was calculated using the Clopper-Pearson method.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Normal Tissue Yellow Notification Rate [ Time Frame: 24 hours ]
    The ivWatch Model 400 issues yellow notifications to communicate the need for a clinician to check an IV site. A yellow notification suggests an increased likelihood that an IV infiltration may be occurring, although at a lower likelihood relative to a red notification. This measure describes the average number of yellow notifications issued by the ivWatch device in a given day when monitoring normal, non-infiltrated tissues. The 95% confidence interval for the yellow notification rate was calculated using the Clopper-Pearson method.

  2. Significant Skin Irritation or Disruption to Skin Integrity [ Time Frame: 24 hours ]
    The number of IV sites with significant skin irritation or disruption to skin integrity assessed at the end of the study. The Clopper-Pearson method was used for estimating the binomial proportion confidence interval.
