Abstract
The purpose of this technological notes paper is to describe our institution's experience collecting peripheral venous pressure (PVP) waveforms using a standard peripheral intravenous catheter in an awake pediatric patient. PVP waveforms were collected from patients with hypertrophic pyloric stenosis. PVP measurements were obtained prospectively at two time points during the hospitalization: admission to emergency department and after bolus in emergency department. Data was collected from thirty-two patients. Interference in the PVP waveforms data collection was associated with the following: patient or device motion, system set-up error, type of IV catheter, and peripheral intravenous catheter location. PVP waveforms can be collected in an awake pediatric patient and adjuncts to decrease signal interference can be used to optimize data collection.
