Ultrasound 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 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 کاملUltrasound-guided internal jugular vein cannulation.
N Engl J Med 2010;362:e57. Copyright © 2010 Massachusetts Medical Society. overview Traditionally, internal jugular vein cannulation has been performed with the use of external anatomical landmarks and palpation to guide insertion of the needle into the vessel. However, depending on the operator’s experience and the patient’s anatomy, this procedure may be difficult or unsuccessful. Over the pa...

متن کاملA comparison of longitudinal and transverse approaches to ultrasound-guided axillary vein cannulation by experienced operators.
BACKGROUND The axillary vein is an easily accessible vessel that can be used for ultrasound-guided central vascular access and offers an alternative to the internal jugular and subclavian veins. The objective of this study was to identify which transducer orientation, longitudinal or transverse, is better for imaging the axillary vein with ultrasound. METHODS We analyzed 236 patients who had ...
