The Ultrasound-Only Central Venous Catheter Placement and Confirmation Procedure
J Ultrasound Med.
2015 Jul.
Abstract
The placement of a central venous catheter remains an important intervention in the care of critically ill patients in the emergency department. We propose an ultrasound-first protocol for 3 aspects of central venous catheter placement above the diaphragm: dynamic procedural guidance, evaluation for pneumothorax, and confirmation of the catheter tip location.
Keywords: central venous access; central venous catheter placement; contrast-enhanced ultrasound; emergency ultrasound; iatrogenic pneumothorax.
