Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to compare ultrasound guided peripheral IV placement with and without the use of a guidewire. Patients in the Emergency Department with difficult peripheral IV access (as defined by 2 failed attempts by nursing staff) will be consented and randomized to standard ultrasound guided peripheral IV placement or ultrasound guided peripheral IV placement with modified seldinger technique using a guidewire.
