No results posted yet for this study

Summary

To evaluate the value of US-guided Stellate ganglion block for improving radial arterial blood flow and peripheral perfusion in Septic shock patients on vasopressor support with an indwelling radial arterial cannula, which can result in reduced incidence premature failure of the catheter (due to vasospasm or thrombosis) and incidence of ischemic complications in the cannulated arm.

Conditions

  • Stellate Ganglion Block
  • Radial Artery Cannulation

Interventions

PROCEDURE

USG stellate ganglion block

After verification of proper needle position and aspiration to exclude vascular spread, 1mL of the injectate will be injected to see proper tissue spread as well as patient response. After one minute the remaining volume will be injected under real time ultrasound imaging.
