Utility of Ultrasonography During Internal Jugular Vein Catheterisation in Pediatric Patients

May 5, 2014 updated by: CIGDEM YILDIRIM GUCLU, Ankara University
Central venous access may be essential in pediatric patients for fluid and a blood product administration, medication, parenteral nutrition, renal replacement therapy and hemodynamic monitoring. Obtaining central venous access in pediatric patients can be challenging, failure rates in pediatric patients range from 5% to 19% with reported complication rates from 2,5% to 22% The landmark technique has been standard approach for many years. In comparison with landmark method in pediatric patients the use of ultrasound is associated with an increased success rate decreased operative time, reduced number of cannulation attempts , and a decreased number of carotid artery punctures. We wanted to evaluate our success rate using ultrasound as a guidance during central vein insertion.
