Ultrasound-guided central venous access
نویسنده
چکیده
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 traditional landmark approach.

Comparison Between Open and Ultrasonography Guided Venous Access Ports in Children with Malignancy
Background: Long-term central venous access is used in children for various reasons specially for delivering chemotherapy. Since vessels in children have smaller diameters, they are more prone to injury and complications such as thrombosis. Different methods are used for implantation of port-a-cath in children. We aimed to compare the complications of insertion of central venous access ports be...

AIM The technique of ultrasound-guided subclavian cannulation was evaluated in our experience assessing the real effectiveness of such procedure. METHODS We have evaluated 297 subclavian cannulation, performed for the placement of central venous catheter both with landmark method (176 patients) and ultrasound guided technique (121 patients) to assess the real effectiveness of the ultrasound-g...

STUDY OBJECTIVE We examine the central venous catheter placement rate during the implementation of an ultrasound-guided peripheral intravenous access program. METHODS We conducted a time-series analysis of the monthly central venous catheter rate among adult emergency department (ED) patients in an academic urban ED between 2006 and 2011. During this period, emergency medicine residents and E...

HYPOTHESIS Real-time ultrasound guidance should increase the success rate and lower the complication rate of central venous access in patients with relative contraindications to having the procedure performed. DESIGN Prospective case series. SETTING A community-based tertiary care hospital. PATIENTS Fifty-two patients were studied. Relative risks to central venous catheter insertion inclu...
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 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...
