Measure
Infiltrated Tissue
The ivWatch Model 400 sensors monitored an IV site during the infiltration of 10 mL of isotonic saline solution. IV sites were placed in the forearm and the dorsal aspect of the hand. The rate of the infiltration ranged between 5 mL/hr to 150 mL/hr. ivWatch Model 400: The ivWatch Model 400 monitored the site during the course of the infiltration and issued red and/or yellow notifications if an infiltration was detected.
