Why is the research being conducted?

The One Million Global (OMG) peripheral intravenous catheters (PIVC) study is shaping up to be the largest clinical benchmarking study ever undertaken with peripheral cannulas. The study aims to compare the current state of peripheral intravascular device use and practices from hospitals across the world. The information gathered from the OMG study is expected to identify gaps between intravenous guideline recommendations and clinical practice. This will provide excellent benchmarking opportunities for participating hospitals and create opportunities for the development of targeted education strategies and future research priorities.
