Ultrasound guided central vascular access in neonates, infants and children.
Ultrasound guided central venous cannulation is rapidly becoming the standard technique for achieving a central line in neonates, infants and children. Older techniques such as surgical cutdown and 'blind' percutaneous venipuncture have many disadvantages: they are time consuming, vein consuming and/or associated with dangerous immediate or late complications. On the other hand, ultrasound has ...

Physicians spend a considerable amount of time and effort inserting catheters and needles into patients. Central venous catheters are the mainstay of measuring hemodynamic variables that cannot be assessed by noninvasive procedures. These catheters also allow hemodialysis, parenteral nutritional support, delivery of medications, and catecholamine administration. Arterial pressure catheters are ...
متن کامل9 Ultrasound Guided Vascular Access
Vascular access is an important procedure for clinicians to master. Chronic medical conditions, intravenous drug use, and obesity can all make placements of vascular catheters in central and peripheral veins challenging and time-consuming. External landmarks have traditionally guided the placement of the needle for the performance of central venous catheterization. The proximity of such structu...
متن کاملUltrasound guidance for vascular access.
The evidence that supports the general application of US guidance for venous access in the ED has reached a critical mass. The increasing familiarity of emergency physicians with US and the recent focus on patient safety and clinical outcomes has intensified attention on the capacity for US to improve patient care in the ED. US guidance can increase the safety and efficiency of venous access pr...
متن کاملSnare-assisted vascular access: a new technique.
Access to the central circulation can be difficult in small infants, particularly when normal anatomic landmarks have been altered. We describe a new technique that utilizes any existing central catheter to establish additional sites of vascular access. A 4 Fr end hole catheter is advanced under fluoroscopic guidance to the desired site of new vascular access. A 10-mm Amplatz snare catheter is ...
