Transillumination Device for Peripheral Intravenous Placement in Patients With Sickle Cell Disease (PERFID)

The primary goal of this randomized, controlled, open-label study is to determine the efficacy of AccuveinV400 (a transillumination veins device) to facilitate peripheral intravenous (IVP) catheter placement during a vaso-oclusive crisis. The investigators hypothesized that the number of attempts to a successful placement of a peripheral IV, our primary outcome, would be shorter with the assistance of the Accuvein V400. It is also expected that AccuveinV400 will reduce the time of the procedure, the rate of failure, the technique-related pain.

Treatment and study plan

Accuvein V400 device

Device

Sickle cell patients who need a new vein puncture in order to infuse them will benefit of AccuveinV400 device to illuminate their venous network

Routine procedure

Other

In the control group, the nurse proceeds as usual to infuse the patient (visual identification in the light of the chamber and palpation)

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of venipunctures

    Time frame: Time of the infusion procedure

    Number of venipunctures until the peripheral IV placement (with a retrograde blood sample) or before failure (discontinuation after at least 3 attempts by 2 nurses and a maximum of 9 attempts in total).

Secondary outcomes

  1. Time of the procedure

    Time frame: Time of the infusion procedure

    Time from the tourniquet inflation to the insertion of the catheter with a retrograde blood sample was recorded with a chronometer

  2. Procedure failure

    Time frame: Time of the infusion procedure

    Percentage of the procedure failure

  3. The need of a central venous catheter

    Time frame: Time of the infusion procedure

    Percentage of use of a central venous catheter due to failure of peripheral perfusion.

  4. Patient bone pain before and after the procedure

    Time frame: Before and within 1 hour after a successful peripheral IV placement

    Patient bone pain will be evaluated by Visual Analogue Scale (between 0=no pain to10=intolerable pain) before and after the infusion procedure

  5. Anxiety before and after the procedure

    Time frame: Just before and within 1 hour after a successful peripheral IV placement

    Patient and nurse anxiety will be evaluated by a visual 5 points-Likert scale (between 1=not at all anxiety to 5=extremely anxious) of anxiety before and after the procedure

  6. Patient satisfaction (pain)

    Time frame: Within 1 hour after a successful peripheral IV placement

    Patient pain related to the procedure will be evaluated by Visual Analogue Scale (between 0=no pain to10=intolerable pain)

  7. Patient satisfaction (procedure)

    Time frame: Within 1 hour after a successful peripheral IV placement

    Patient satisfaction of the procedure will be evaluated by a visual 5-points Likert scale (between 1=not at all anxiety to 5=extremely anxious) of satisfaction of the procedure

  8. Nurse satisfaction (procedure)

    Time frame: Within 1 hour after a successful peripheral IV placement

    Nurse global satisfaction of the procedure will be evaluated by Likert scale (between 1=not at all anxiety to 5=extremely anxious)

  9. Nurse satisfaction (quality of placement)

    Time frame: Within 1 hour after a successful peripheral IV placement

    Nurse satisfaction of the quality of the peripheral intravenous placement will be evaluated by Likert scale (between 1=not at all anxiety to 5=extremely anxious)

  10. Qualitative interview of the Accuvein use

    Time frame: An average of one week after the procedure

    Verbatim of a semi-structured interview by a psychologist of 10 to 15 patients (and their nurse) often hospitalized, in the Accuvein Arm

  11. Side effects of the procedure

    Time frame: Time of the infusion procedure

    Complication rate of the peripheral venous catheter procedure (hematoma, bleeding, malaise).
