Abstract
Ultrasound-guidance improves success for difficult intravenous access (DIVA), particularly when difficulty is anticipated. However, insertion of a wide-bore sheath, such as a rapid infusion catheter, is likely to pose additional problems and unique challenges in this context, despite ultrasound guidance. With the aid of a video clinical simulation, this article describes an ultrasound-guided technique for inserting a proprietary rapid infusion catheter (RIC) or similar wide-bore sheath using the micropuncture kit.
