“…Obtaining vascular access when necessary can be considered a core competency for physicians. A recent editorial comment in the Annals of Emergency Medicine about ultrasound guidance for difficult peripheral access stated: “Rather than commit the time and resources to ultrasound guidance, practitioners without extensive experience with this technique should pursue further attempts at standard cannulation or consider central line placement to obtain venous catheterization for patients with difficult peripheral access.” 44 Practitioners who use this tool routinely and effectively objected to this statement 45 . Efforts to increase and improve training for providers who perform vascular access, particularly in medical school and residency, should be emphasized 46 …”

Vascular access is the most commonly performed invasive procedure in medicine. For more than 20 years, ultrasound has been shown to improve the success and decrease complications of central venous access; however, it is still not universally used for this procedure. Ultrasound may also be used to facilitate difficult peripheral vascular access, potentially avoiding other more invasive procedures such as central or intraosseus vascular access. This article reviews some of the indications and evidence for ultrasound‐guided vascular access, provides tips for successful ultrasound guidance, and discusses barriers to adoption.

Should nurses be trained to use ultrasound for intravenous access to patients with difficult veins?

Peripheral venous access is the most common invasive procedure performed on patients in the UK and is traditionally the responsibility of nursing staff. In an emergency, intravenous therapy can be lifesaving. Approximately 11% of adults have difficult venous access and are often subjected to repeated failed attempts, resulting in delayed diagnosis and treatment. Eventually, rescue methods are used by a doctor, but this increases demand on their time and the workflow of emergency departments. This article explores whether training nurses to obtain venous access using ultrasound would have a positive effect on doctors' workload and benefit adult patients with difficult veins. Research indicates that nurses can successfully use ultrasound to reduce the number of attempts, time to access and patient discomfort, and can prevent the insertion of unnecessary central lines. Ultrasound training programmes for nurses demonstrate benefits for patients and clinicians.
