Ultrasound evaluation of central veinsin the intensive care unit:effects of dynamic manoeuvres

Abstract: Ultrasonography should be performed before at least central venous catheter placement to detect the presence of deep vein thrombosis or vessels less than 5 mm in diameter. Some positions increase veins' diameter at least internally, T position increasing IJV size and Ti position increasing FV size.

“…All of the patients were positioned with their neck in extension and head rotated left at [20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30] . Patients were studied in State 0, table flat (no tilt), with the patients in the supine position, and State T, in which the operating table was tilted 15 to a TP.…”

“…1,13 The mean diameter of the right internal jugular is 11.5 mm, but it can be less than 5 mm in 13-18% of cases. 14,15 Thus, it is not surprising to find only partial success when puncturing laterally to the artery using the blind technique ( Figure 1, Table 1) Anatomical variations can be observed between the left and right jugular vein in the same individual. According to Modeliar et al, the diameter of the jugular vein is significantly larger on the right than on the left in 65% of cases.…”

“…According to Modeliar et al, the diameter of the jugular vein is significantly larger on the right than on the left in 65% of cases. 15 In another study, Lichtenstein et al evaluated the asymmetry between the right and left jugular veins. Asymmetry was defined as an area twice as large as the opposite side and was noted in 62% of cases, the right jugular vein being dominant in 68% of patients.…”
