Ultrasound-guided infraclavicular axillary vein cannulation for central venous access.
BACKGROUND Infraclavicular axillary vein cannulation is not commonly used for central venous access because identifying the surface landmarks is difficult. Ultrasound guided axillary vein puncture has not been well described. We assessed ultrasound imaging to guide catheterization of the infraclavicular axillary vein. METHODS In 200 consecutive patients we attempted to catheterize the axillar...
متن کاملUltrasound guided infraclavicular axillary vein cannulation, coming of age.
In this month’s journal Ahn and colleagues report the effect of arm abduction on the success of central catheter placement after ultrasound guided infraclavicular axillary vein (AXV) cannulation. We discuss these findings and reflect on the development of this particular route of access to central veins. This paper presents good evidence that arm abduction increases the success of central cathe...
متن کاملComparison of ultrasound and ultrasound plus nerve stimulator guidance axillary plexus block.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the characteristics of axillary plexus blockade applied using ultrasound only and using ultrasound together with nerve stimulator in patients undergoing planned forearm, wrist or hand surgery. METHODS This randomised, prospective, double-blinded, single-centre study was conducted at Ankara Numune Training and Research Hospital, Ankara, Turkey, from November 2014 to Augus...
متن کاملUltrasound guidance improves success rate of axillary brachial plexus block.
PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to determine if real time ultrasound guidance improves the success rate of axillary brachial plexus blockade. METHODS Patients undergoing elective hand surgery were randomly assigned to one of three groups. Axillary blocks were performed using three motor response endpoints in the nerve stimulator (NS) Group, real-time ultrasound guidance in the ultrasound...
متن کاملDifferent Learning Curves for Axillary Brachial Plexus Block: Ultrasound Guidance versus Nerve Stimulation
Little is known about the learning of the skills needed to perform ultrasound- or nerve stimulator-guided peripheral nerve blocks. The aim of this study was to compare the learning curves of residents trained in ultrasound guidance versus residents trained in nerve stimulation for axillary brachial plexus block. Ten residents with no previous experience with using ultrasound received ultrasound...
