Abstract
Abstract Background: Percutaneous techniques have transformed vascular cannulation. It has reduced the need for open procedures and the associatedwoundcomplications, but percutaneous techniques have made physicians dependent on relationships between surface anatomic landmarks and deep anatomic structures. Now, percutaneous central venous catheter insertion by physicians has a lesser complication rate. During central venous catheterization, the complications include infection, occlusion, thrombosis and mechanical complications. Aims and Objective: To relate the inner course of cannulating needle, familiarity of surface anatomic landmarks excludes the complication. Deep anatomic relationships visualization does not only improves the efficacy and safety of the procedure but also supplements the operator’s ability to identify difficult cannulations. The safety of internal jugular cannulations increases with ultrasound visualization. Central venous cathetrization (CVC) is done for hemodynamic monitoring (such as central venous pressure) long-term administration of fluids, antibiotics, total parental nutrition, and hemodialysis. Material and Methods: Most commonly, the internal jugular vein (IJV) is cannulated because of its relatively less complications and easy accessibility. Seldinger technique is used for IJV cannulation. Landmark-guided IJV cannulation is associated with a more number of complications compared to ultrasound-guided cannulation. Ultrasound-guided cannulation improves success rate, reduces the number of needle passes, and decreases complications. Two different real-time ultrasound-guided cannulations of IJV using a short axis/out-of-plane (SA) approach and a long axis/in plane (LA) approach are compared in the study. Hence, the present study was done at our tertiary care center to compare ultrasound-guided IJV access between SA and LA technique method with the number of attempts and complications. Results: It was observed in the present study that 4 (10%) patients in Long axis group had posterior wall puncture while 9 (22.5%) patients in short axis group had posterior wall puncture. Conclusion: Posterior wall puncture incidence is lesser in long axis group than short axis group.
