Summary

The insertion of central venous catheters (CVCs) has become an integral part of management of a critically ill patient. Access to the central vein may be required for the administration of hyper osmotic or vasoactive compounds, parenteral nutrition, and rapid infusion of large volumes of fluid or for the continuous or intermittent monitoring of biochemical or physiological parameters. Central venous catheter insertion is also indicated when the insertion of a peripheral line is not possible. Traditionally, CVC insertions have been performed using the landmark technique.

Considering the number of CVCs being inserted every day, this can amount to a large number of complications. Efforts to minimize and prevent the occurrence of complications should be a routine component of quality improvement programs. There is an increasing body of evidence supporting the use of ultrasound guidance for CVC placement.

This makes the strong rationale to conduct this research thus the aim of this study is to evaluate the real benefits i.e outcome of Long versus Short Axis ultrasound guided approach for internal jugular vein cannulation in the patient for elective cardiac surgery as central venous cannulation (CVC).

Conditions

  • Catheterization, Central Venous
  • Ultrasonography
  • Cardiac Surgical Procedures

Interventions

PROCEDURE

In-plane Axis

In a long-axis view, the image plane is parallel to the course of the vessel (needle is "in-plane"). The image shows the course of the vessel across the screen and the shaft and point of the needle as it is advanced. The central venous cannulation was done in in-plane axis.

PROCEDURE

Out of plane Axis

In a short-axis view, the image plane is perpendicular to the course of the vessel and to the needle (needle is "out of plane"). The vessel appears as an anechoic circle on the screen of ultrasound with the needle visualized as a hyperechoic point in cross-section. The central venous cannulation was done in out of plane axis.
