Hickman catheter-induced cardiac tamponade-related cardiac perforation management by mediastinotomy in children and a review of the literature

Abstract: Objective Hickman catheter placement rarely causes cardiac tamponade due to cardiac perforation in children. Cardiac perforation can be managed with timely perceive and appropriate approach. We present a case of the cardiac perforation related to Hickman catheter insertion in a 7-year-old girl and a review of the supporting literature. Case report The patient had previous history of Thalassemia and admitted to hospital for Hickman catheter placement for bone marrow tran… Show more

“…Furthermore, in 2000, the Infusion Nurses Society indicated in a Standards of Practice document that "central catheters should have the distal tip dwelling in the vena cava" [27]. Although there are various different viewpoints, it is generally recommended to avoid intracardiac catheter placement (as suggested by the USFDA) in order to reduce the possibility of fatal complications such as arrhythmia, or cardiac tamponade related to cardiac perforation [28][29][30]. Overall, based on these guidelines, it was concluded that the optimal location of the catheter tip for central venous access is around the CAJ, and more broadly, from the SVC to the mid-RA (not too deep).…”
