Official title
Examining the Effect of a Sacral Lift on Femoral Vein Size and Exposure in the Emergency Department
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a sacral lift can improve femoral vein size and exposure, which may be clinically helpful during femoral vein cannulation among emergency department patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does a sacral lift increase femoral vein size compared to no sacral lift in both straight and frog-leg positions? Does a sacral lift improve femoral vein exposure (reduce overlap by the femoral artery) compared to no sacral lift in both straight and frog-leg positions? Researchers will compare femoral vein size and exposure measurements with and without a sacral lift in both straight and frog-leg leg positions to see if the sacral lift improves vein size and reduces artery overlap. Participants will: Undergo femoral vein ultrasound scans. Maintain a straight leg position with and without a sacral lift. Maintain a frog-leg position with and without a sacral lift.
