Randomized controlled trial examines ultrasound-guided central venous catheterization

ultrasound cvc insertion

The combined short-axis-and-long-axis approach for ultrasound-guided central venous catheterization had a lower posterior wall puncture rate than the SA-OOP approach, but there was no significant difference with the long-axis in-plane approach” Takeshita et al (2019). Abstract: OBJECTIVE: The authors compared the occurrence of posterior wall puncture using the short-axis out-of-plane and long-axis in-plane approaches with […]
