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 Catheters: Legal Issues

The Journal of Vascular Access, 2011
In dialysis patients, both central venous catheter (CVC) insertion and CVC use during the dialysis procedure pose important legal issues, because of potentially severe, even fatal, complications. The first issue is the decision of the kind of vascular access that should be proposed to patients: an arteriovenous (AV) fistula, a graft, or a CVC.

Prehospital central venous catheters

Transfusion
KEY IDEAS The use of whole blood in the prehospital setting is increasing. Currently available intraosseous and peripheral venous catheters limit the flow of blood products and fluid during resuscitation. Central venous catheters can be effectively placed in the prehospital environment. Rapid, high‐volume infusion of blood products can be lifesaving.
