Problem
Central vascular access devices (CVADs) in newborns and children have high misplacement and migration rates due to blind insertion techniques and a lack of real-time guidance. These misplaced or migrated CVADs can lead to serious complications, delays in therapy, and increased healthcare costs.
Solution
Navi Medical Technologies offers the Neonav® ECG Tip Location System, a non-invasive device designed to provide real-time monitoring of CVAD positioning in newborns and children. The system utilizes ECG surveillance technology and advanced proprietary algorithms to interpret the patient’s cardiac electrical activity, providing clinicians with continuous feedback on catheter tip location. This enables healthcare providers to ensure accurate CVAD placement during insertion and monitor for migration throughout the dwell time, promoting safer infusion therapy. The Neonav® system facilitates bedside spot checks, reducing the need for additional imaging and minimizing delays in initiating critical treatments.
Target Audience
The primary users are clinical teams in neonatal and pediatric intensive care units focused on ensuring safe and accurate placement and monitoring of CVADs in newborns and children.
