This study tests whether gentle massage and tapping on your arm near the IV site can lower the chance of irritation (phlebitis) from the IV. If you qualify, you would do simple hand and arm motions for a short time each day while you have the IV.
This study tests a small, wireless device that sticks to the skin near an IV to monitor the site during and after an infusion treatment. It may help detect problems early and is designed for people receiving infusions lasting at least 30 minutes.
This study tests a new sensor that may help detect when IV fluids leak into the tissue around the injection site. It is for healthy adults to see if the sensor works correctly.
This trial tests a device or method to make IV infusions safer for patients who need fluids or medications through a tube in a vein. It's for adults who already have or will get an IV line for treatments lasting at least 15 minutes.
