Successful placement of postpyloric enteral tubes using electromagnetic guidance in critically ill children.
OBJECTIVES Initiation of postpyloric feeding is often delayed by difficulties in placement of enteral tubes. We evaluated the effectiveness of bedside postpyloric enteral tube (PET) placement using an electromagnetic (EM)-guided device. We hypothesized that: 1) EM-guided placement of PETs would be successful more often than standard blind placement with a shorter total time to successful placem...

متن کاملComplications of pulmonary artery catheterization in the care of critically ill patients. A prospective study.
In order to evaluate the incidence and the significance of complications resulting from the use of flow--directed, balloon--tipped catheters to monitor critically ill patients, we made a prospective study of 116 pulmonary artery catheterizations. Indications for catheterization included shock, pulmonary edema, or hemodynamic instability following surgery. Arrhythmias, including premature atrial...
متن کاملUltrasound-guided internal jugular vein catheterization in critically ill pediatric patients
PURPOSE Continuous intravenous access is imperative in emergency situations. Ultrasound-guided internal jugular vein (IJV) catheterization was investigated in critically ill pediatric patients to assess the feasibility of the procedure. METHODS Patients admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit between February 2011 and September 2012 were enrolled in this study. All patients received a c...
متن کاملComplications of femoral venous catheterization in critically ill patients.
entral venous catheters are being increasingly used in both Intensive Care Units (ICUs) and general wards. Unfortunately, their use is associated with adverse events that are both hazardous to the patients and expensive to treat. More than 15% of patients who receive these catheters have complications. In this report, a 67-year-old lady, a known case of diabetes mellitus, hypertension and ische...
