What this trial studies

The project develops and tests a novel fixation device intended to secure invasive arterial pressure monitoring sets and reduce discomfort after coronary artery bypass grafting. Sixty adult CABG patients who require postoperative arterial and central venous pressure monitoring will have the device applied. Fixation stability, patient comfort, and hemodynamic measures (arterial blood pressure and CVP) will be recorded over a 48-hour postoperative period and compared with standard adhesive tape fixation. The protocol has institutional ethical approval and follows standard human subject protections.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Adults aged 18–80 undergoing CABG who are hemodynamically stable, require invasive arterial and CVP monitoring, and can provide informed consent.

Not a fit: Patients who are hemodynamically unstable, have coagulopathy or local infection/skin lesions at the insertion site, a known allergy to device materials, or who are outside the 18–80 age range are unlikely to benefit.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the device could reduce arterial line displacement and monitoring errors, improve patient comfort, and lower complications related to catheter movement.

How similar studies have performed: Some small prior studies of dedicated arterial line stabilizers have suggested improved line security and comfort, but this specific fixation apparatus is novel and not yet clinically validated.
