Clinical Record of Emergency Vascular Access Using Adult Intraosseous (IO) Devices
نویسندگان
چکیده
Accessing the medullary space of the bone, offers a rapid, effective, and reasonably foolproof alternative to IV access. Newly introduced adult intraosseous (IO) technologies have been suggested as one means to improve success rate of emergency vascular access. The National Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Medicine Report recommends IO infusion as the preferred initial vascular route for combat casualty care.

BACKGROUND For patients' safety reasons, current American Heart Association and European Resuscitation Council guidelines recommend intraosseous (IO) vascular access as an alternative in cases of emergency, if prompt venous catheterization is impossible. The purpose of this study was to compare the IO access as a bridging procedure versus central venous catheterization (CVC) for in-hospital adu...
