Safety of Administration of Vasopressors Through Peripheral Compared to Central Venous Catheters in a Rural Kenyan Hospital: Protocol for a Prospective Observational Cohort Study

This study in a resource-variable setting will allow for more accurate and comprehensive data collection on vasopressor administration and potential complications as they arise, whereas most previous studies have been retrospective in nature. In addition, this is the first study of its kind to include both adult and pediatric patients within a mixed intensive care unit population with broad etiologies of shock, which could improve generalizability.
