Rapid Central Vein Assessment (RaCeVA): A systematic, standardized approach for ultrasound assessment before central venous catheterization

Journal of Vascular Access, 2018
Ultrasound technology has revolutionized the practice of safer vascular access, for both venous and arterial cannulation. The ability to visualize underlying structures of the chest, neck, and upper/lower extremities provides for greater success, speed ...

Central Venous Catheterization

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1982
To the Editor.— The recent article by Dronen et al (1982;247:3227) demonstrated an increasing change in the approach to central venous catheterization. In 1981,I started a prospective study of complications from the infraclavicular (IC) approach to the subclavian vein during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in our emergency department (60,000 ...

Comparison of Complication Rates of Central Venous Catheters Versus Peripherally Inserted Central Venous Catheters in Pediatric Patients*

Pediatric Critical Care Medicine, 2018
Objectives: The purpose of our study is to compare the rate of central line–associated blood stream infections and venous thromboembolism in central venous catheters versus peripherally inserted central catheters in hospitalized children.

Central Venous Catheter Access

Nutrition, 1998
Central venous access for the purpose of supplying parenteral nutrition to the pediatric age group requires a careful definition of the patient's caloric need, estimated duration of therapy, and an assessment of available sites. Peripheral vein parenteral nutrition is limited by caloric density of the nutrient fluids, while peripherally inserted ...

Central Venous Catheter Complications

Pediatrics, 1983
To the Editor.— We read with interest the paper of Dolcourt and Bose.1 We commend them on their technical expertise and success rate in establishing central venous access. There are several conclusions with which we take issue. 1. Duration of Line Usage.

Supraclavicular central venous catheterization

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1985
Percutaneous central venous catheterization is a well-accepted procedure for cardiac monitoring, total parenteral nutrition, and long-term drug therapy. The supraclavicular approach was used for 90 catheterizations in 81 gynecologic patients to evaluate ease of insertion, complication rate, and patient compliance.

Central venous pressure monitoring

Current Opinion in Critical Care, 2006
The proper use of central venous pressure requires a good understanding of basic measurement techniques and features of the waveform.If attention is not paid to proper leveling of the transducer and consideration of transmural pressure then major errors are made in the use of central venous pressure. Besides the information gained from the relationship

Central Venous Catheter Infections

Pediatric Clinics of North America, 1988
When used wisely, central venous catheters are capable of providing vital circulatory access in any patient with a remarkably low risk of infection or major complication. Tunneled silicone catheters are the route of choice for long-term or outpatient use, particularly for oncology or TPN patients; insertion of such a catheter should occur early in the ...

Measuring central venous pressure

Nursing Standard, 2007
Central venous pressure measurement is often associated with intensive and critical care settings. However, with increasing numbers of critically ill patients being cared for on medical and surgical wards, it is essential that nursing staff are able to record central venous pressure measurement accurately and recognise normal and abnormal parameters as
