About this trial

Based on the hypothesis that the strategy of using Closed-Blood Sampling Devices (CSBD, experimental group) compared to the usual practice (waste discard volume, control group), in critically ill adult patients, will decrease the amount of blood withdrawn for laboratory tests, we want to analyze the number of red blood cells (RBC) administered and arterial catheter-related adverse events (catheter-related bacteremia, catheter obstruction, CBSD malfunction, loss of arterial pressure waveform on the patient's bedside monitor) in both study groups, during ICU stay and up to a maximum of 21 days.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Adult patients with an arterial catheter who agree to participate in the study, with a stay in the ICU of 24h and a minimum of 72h more with an arterial catheter

Disqualifiers

Patients with chronic renal failure

Patients with active gastrointestinal bleeding

Patients diagnosed with hematologic cancer

Women with menstruation at the time of admission

Trial design

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Closed-Blood Sampling Devices

    Device

    blood collection with Closed-Blood Sampling System (CBSD)

  • Waste discard volume

    Other intervention

    Blood collection without CBSD, usual practice, need to waste discard volume

Treatment groups

216 Participants
are divided into 2 treatment groups
Group A: CBSD-experimental groupExperimental treatment 1 intervention
Group B: Waste discard volume, control groupActive comparator 1 intervention
