Umbilical Vein Needle Catheterization for Endotracheal Intubation. (Intubation)

January 25, 2022 updated by: Centre Hospitalier René Dubos
The investigators describe a simple and efficient method to give a premedication in the delivery room, using the umbilical vein, directly punctured through Wharton's jelly.

Study Overview

Status

Completed

Detailed Description

The umbilical vein is punctured to inject drugs efficiently. The access is simple, the umbilical vein is clearly visible, and a blood reflux can be found easily. The investigators used the same equipment required for a peripheral venous injection: 24 gauge cannula, antisepsis, compress, and a syringe with the prepared anesthetic drugs. The investigators report 5 cases of intubations in the delivery room using this method to administer the premedication.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Preterm infants intubated
All participants were preterm infants intubated in the delivery room for Infantile Respiratory Distress Syndrome (IRDS). The purpose of this research is to determine a premedication of intubation. This consists of describing a simple and effective method for premedication in the delivery room, using the umbilical vein, directly perforated through the Wharton jelly.
The umbilical vein is punctured to inject drugs efficiently. The access is simple, the umbilical vein is clearly visible, and a blood reflux can be found easily. We used the same equipment required for a peripheral venous injection: 24 gauge cannula, antisepsis, compress, and a syringe with the prepared anesthetic drugs. We report 5 cases of intubations in the delivery room using this method to administer the premedication.
