Treatment and study plan

VPS System

Device

Use of the navigational VPS system during catheter placement

Primary outcomes

  1. Performance target: the catheter tip will be located in the lower 1/3 of the SVC or at the cavoatrial junction as evaluated by fluoroscopy with a VPS bullseye at least 90% of the time

    Time frame: participants are followed until catheter tip confirmation via fluoroscopy is completed which is on average one hour from procedure initiation

Secondary outcomes

  1. The VPS will provide a blue bullseye indicator 80-90% of the time

    Time frame: participants are followed until catheter tip confirmation is completed which is on average one hour from the start of the procedure
