Table 2 Time required and success rates of IOI with BIG

From: Current status of establishing a venous line in CPA patients by Emergency Life-Saving Technicians in the prehospital setting in Japan and a proposal for intraosseous infusion

 

Time required

Mean ± SEM (sec)

Success rate

Adult

29.1 ± 0.63

93% (93/100)

Pediatric

28.7 ± 0.60

94% (94/100)

Infant

29.3 ± 0.65

84% (84/100)*

  1. The time required for IOI with BIG was compared using one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Fisher's PLSD (Fisher's Protected Least Significant Difference). The success rates of IOI with BIG were compared using the chi-square test.
  2. There was no difference in the time required for performing IOI with BIG among the different leg models. The success rates of IOI with BIG were significantly lower in infant leg models when compared to adult and pediatric leg models.
  3. *p < 0.05 in chi-square test.
