Acesso venoso central guiado por ultrassom: qual a evidência?

Abstract: Ultrasound-guided central venous catheterization: what is the evidence? Acesso venoso central guiado por ultrassom: qual a evidência? REVIEW ARTICLE INTRODUCTION Central venous puncture is extremely frequent in intensive care units (ICU). (1,2) It is estimated that more than 5 million central venous catheters (CVCs) are inserted yearly in the United States of America. (3) Despite its frequency, this procedure has risks and may be associated with severe complications, including death. The complication rate is e… Show more

“…Possible complications that can involve serious risk to patients include pneumothorax, arterial puncture; hematoma; and injuries to the phrenic nerve and stellate ganglion. [2][3][4] One of the most important factors influencing the success of this procedure is the experience of the professionals involved. Traditionally anatomic landmarks are used when performing central venous punctures, meaning that anatomic variations can make the procedure more difficult.…”

“…Since 2001, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality has recommended 11 practices to improve the safety of care provided to patients undergoing surgery and/or admitted to hospital, one of which is using ultrasound to guide central venous punctures, increasing safety and minimizing risks. [2][3][4][5][6] Training procedures should be used wisely to familiarize students with the technique, but existing models are expensive or ineffective, since an ideal training model should be similar to what will be encountered in real patients. The objective of this study was to develop an inexpensive and realistic model that is capable of simulating a routine procedure, which is a real challenge.…”
