Subclavian vein catheterization

Operative Techniques in General Surgery, 2001
Summary Subclavian catheterization is a practical procedure providingcentral venous access for multiple purposes. Potential complications are related to anatomic considerations and diminish with increasing operator experience. Infectious complications can be reduced by aseptic surgical placement and meticulous care of the catheter itself, preferably ...

Subclavian Vein Stenosis as a Complication of Subclavian Catheterization for Hemodialysis

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1987
Thirteen patients had placement of a subclavian vein catheter for temporary vascular access for hemodialysis. Peripheral venography was performed within two to six weeks of catheter placement. Forty-six percent (six of 13 patients) developed subclavian vein narrowing, which resolved in two patients.

Percutaneous Axillary Vein Approach in Pediatric Pacing: Comparison with Subclavian Vein Approach

Pacing and clinical electrophysiology : PACE, 2013
The subclavian vein approach has been used for 20 years in our center for pacemaker (PM) implantation in children, but it carries risks of hemothorax/pneumothorax and lead fracture, which could be reduced by axillary vein approach.

Supraclavicular Catheterization of the Subclavian Vein

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Surgery, 1973
A technique of supraclavicular subclavian vein catheterization is described. Points are made concerning the maintenance of the catheter and measurement of the central venous pressure. The indications for and complications of the use of the catheter are discussed. Alternative methods of central vein catheterization are reviewed.

Surgical management of subclavian vein obstruction, including six cases of subclavian vein bypass

Surgery, 1995
The indications are still being developed for the various procedures available to treat thrombotic and nonthrombotic subclavian vein obstruction. This article explores our experience with the surgical options, primarily with chronic venous occlusion, but also with acute thrombosis.Twelve patients presented with acute or chronic venous thrombosis or ...

Complications and Failures of Subclavian-Vein Catheterization

New England Journal of Medicine, 1994
Although catheterization of the subclavian vein is a common procedure, the risk factors for complications and failures, with the exception of the physician's experience, are poorly understood. Ultrasonography has been recommended to help guide the placement of central venous catheters.We conducted a prospective randomized trial of ultrasound-guided ...
