9 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-guided peripheral intravenous access in the intensive care unit.
PURPOSE Central venous catheters continue to be a popular means of maintaining vascular access in surgical intensive care units despite well-described complications. With edema, obesity, and difficult to visualize veins potentially affecting the surgically ill, inability to obtain peripheral intravenous (PIV) access may hinder the clinician's ability to avoid the use of central lines. With ultr...
متن کاملA new wireless ultrasound probe for ultrasound guided central venous access
Patients and methods The US system we tested consists of a 5-13 MHz linear probe connected by wireless technology (8 GHz ultra wide band) to a compact, keyboardless device. The probe can be completely wrapped up in a sterile cover so to perform the procedure with maximal barrier precautions. The main functions (gain, depth, freeze, save, etc.) can be operated either by controls built-in in the ...
متن کاملClinical experience with ultrasound guided angioplasty for vascular access
BACKGROUND The use of ultrasound guided percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (UG-PTA), which use ultrasound as an imaging modality, is an evolving strategy. But, in Korea, this method is rarely used. We report our experiences with UG-PTA with respect to technical success rates and complication rates compared to conventional PTA (C-PTA), performed between 2010 and 2015 at Samsung Changwon Hospi...
متن کاملAn easily assembled phantom for teaching ultrasound-guided vascular access.
To the Editor, Ultrasound-guided catheterization is an essential skill for central venous catheterization and difficult peripheral vascular access. Compared with landmark techniques, it is associated with higher rates of successful cannulation and fewer complications. Safe, effective use of ultrasound, however, requires operator skill. Trainees must develop the dexterity needed to manipulate th...
