CHiP
The CHiP trial is investigating if strict control of the blood glucose levels of young people in paediatric intensive care units is beneficial when compared to current standard practices. To date 1260 patients out of a target of 1500 have been recruited.
CATCH
CATheter Infections in Children
The aim of this study is to see how the three types of catheters compare in reducing the amount of blood infections in children. We will also look at the costs involved. We hope to recruit 1200 children in the UK over 2 years. We hope that the information we get from this study will guide policy about purchasing impregnated Central Venous Catheters across the NHS and thereby improve treatment for children in the future.
