Background Central venous catheter (CVC) is used for measuring hemodynamic variables, transfusion of blood, fluids and medications when peripheral vascular lack sufficiency. Unfortunately CVC is associated with many complications ranging from anxiety and discomfort for the patient to severe mechanical side effects such as arterial lacerations, pleural and pericardial injury as well as infection...

Arterial misplacement of the venous central line catheter is not an uncommon early complication which carries devastating and fetal consequences. We report a case in patient condition command use closure devise over other surgical endovascular options with successful hemostasis.

BACKGROUND There is an extensive critical care literature for central venous catheter and arterial line infection, duration of catheterization, and compliance with infection control procedures. The emergency medicine literature, however, contains very little data on central venous catheters and arterial lines. As emergency medicine practice continues to incorporate greater numbers of critical c...

background the invention of central venous catheters (cvc) for hemodialysis (hd), brought about a fundamental change in the treatment of patients who needed hd, from the late 1970’s till the present time. nowadays the use of cvc is a common medical procedure. increasing use of these methods necessitates clarification of the exact nature of the effects, and potential complications for surgeons. ...

conclusions noninvasive assessment of the patient hydration condition using the ultrasound is a simple and practicable measure in emergency. with regard to the considerations, it is possible to estimate cvp via diameter measurement and cross-section of the central veins. results twenty patients with the mean age of 60.3 were studied. the main reason for cardiac catheterization was shock. there ...

Background: Central venous catheters (CVCs) have been used widely in clinics. These catheters are also recommended for children and infants receiving chemotherapy and total parenteral nutrition (TPN) and etc. In this paper, we present migrated fractured control line of the heart of a girl. Case Presentation: A 2.5 year old girl with migrated of the fractured central line into the heart. In the ...

BACKGROUND Venous access is crucial in intestinal transplantation, but a thrombosed venous system may prevent the use of central veins of the upper body. The incidence of venous thrombosis and the necessity to perform alternative vascular access (AVA) in intestinal transplant recipients have not been fully investigated. METHODS Records of adult patients who underwent intestinal transplantatio...

Introduction Percutaneous indwelling central venous catheters are commonly used for a variety of medical and surgical indications. There are various complications associated with the insertion of central venous lines despite the advances made in the design, material of the catheter and the technique of insertion. Vascular erosion from the catheter is a rare complication that is identified late ...
