Patients who require inpatient treatment and are judged to need peripheral intravenous catheter (PIVC) infusion for at least 24 hours.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Patients admitted from departments other than pediatrics. Patients with severe underlying conditions (e.g., cardiac disease, renal disease, or immunodeficiency). Patients receiving intravenous fluids other than lactated Ringer solution with glucose or Soludem No. 2 solution. Patients in whom peripheral intravenous access failed after two attempts.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To compare the incidence of catheter failure (CF) between the two techniques and to determine which is superior in terms of infusion completion rates. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| (1) To compare the first-attempt success rate, number of insertion attempts, and catheter dwell time between the two groups. (2) To evaluate the association between catheter failure (CF) and anatomical factors (e.g., vessel diameter, depth, and distance from joints), as well as clinical factors (e.g., age and type of infusate). | — |
