Brief Summary

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

The aim of this observational study is to investigate the complications associated with peripheral venous catheterization based on whether a correct or incorrect catheter was used according to a clinical algorithm in patients admitted to an acute care unit. The main question it seeks to answer is:

• Are there fewer complications associated with catheterization when a correct catheter choice is made? Data from patients admitted to the acute care units of the sponsoring study center will be reviewed.
