Ultrasound detection of guidewire position during central venous catheterization.
INTRODUCTION Ultrasound guidance decreases complications of central venous catheter (CVC) placement, but risks of arterial puncture and inadvertent arterial catheter placement exist. Ultrasound-assisted detection of guidewire position in the internal jugular vein could predict correct catheter position before dilation and catheter placement. METHODS Ultrasound examinations were performed in a...
متن کاملUltrasound-guided central venous catheterization: what is the evidence?
In recent years, international health quality assurance organizations have been recommending ultrasound guidance for central venous punctures. This article reviews the evidence behind these recommendations. The MEDLINE, PubMed and SCIELO databases were searched for the following MeSH terms: central venous access, ultrasonography, and adults. The search was conducted on September 24, 2010, and s...
متن کاملCentral Venous Catheterization: Are We Using Ultrasound Guidance?
OBJECTIVES To assess the self-reported frequency of use of ultrasound guidance for central venous catheterization by emergency medicine (EM) residents, describe residents' perceptions regarding the use of ultrasound guidance, and identify barriers to the use of ultrasound guidance. METHODS A longitudinal cross-sectional study was conducted at 5 academic institutions. A questionnaire on the us...
متن کاملSurvey of a Practical Approach to Central Venous Catheterization in Pediatric Patients
Background Central venous catheter (CVC) is used for measuring hemodynamic variables, transfusion of blood, fluids and medications when peripheral vascular lack sufficiency. Unfortunately CVC is associated with many complications ranging from anxiety and discomfort for the patient to severe mechanical side effects such as arterial lacerations, pleural and pericardial injury as well as infection...
متن کاملUltrasound Guidance for Central Venous Catheterization: A Step Further to Prevent Malposition of Central Venous Catheter before Radiographic Confirmation
Ultrasound (USG) guidance has long been used for guiding central venous catheterization. USG provides direct visualization of needle puncture through the skin into the vein. Most of the time USG guidance is just limited to puncturing of the vein and seeing guidewire entering the vein while malpositioning of catheter occurs after that which is seen later on while checking chest radiograph. Repos...
