Ultrasound-guided central venous access
Central venous catheterization is a critical component of management for the critically ill patient in the operating room and intensive care unit. When using ultrasound techniques for central venous access, access is achieved with fewer attempts, a reduced incidence of carotid artery punctures or 'hits', an increased success rate, and a decreased duration of procedure compared to the traditiona...

متن کاملPortable ultrasound for difficult central venous access.
Central venous catheterization can be difficult and can cause serious complications. Ultrasound-guided venous access is increasingly used but reports concern only routine cases. We performed a prospective observational study in 'difficult' or 'failed' procedures to assess the usefulness of ultrasound guidance. We used the technique in 33 patients; 23 had previous failed attempts or had suffered...
متن کاملUltrasound-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 کاملUtility of Ultrasound Guidance for Central Venous Access in Children.
BACKGROUND Placement of a central venous catheter (CVC) in a pediatric patient is an important skill for pediatric emergency medicine physicians but can be challenging and time consuming. Ultrasound (US) guidance has been shown to improve success of central line placement in adult patients. OBJECTIVES This article aims to review the literature and evaluate the benefit of US guidance in the pl...
