Methods: A doctor was assigned to the induction room of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University (Shanghai Changzheng Hospital) for two months. The time required for catheterization, the first puncture success rate, and occurrence of puncture-related complications were compared before and after learning the “Three Threes” method. Results: Using the “Three Threes” method reduced the catheterization time by 43%, increased the first puncture success rate by 17%, and led to fewer puncture-related complications. Conclusion: The application of the “Three Threes” method not only improves the success rate of internal jugular vein puncture but also reduces complications, making it easier for students to master the technique.展开更多

The SCV catheter being misplaced into the internal jugular （IJV） vein is a common occurrence. The present study explores the influence of a misplaced SCV catheter on TPTD variables. Methods： Thirteen severe acute pancreatitis （SAP） patients with malposition of the SCV catheter were enrolled in this study. TPTD variables including cardiac index （CI）, global end-diastolic volume index （GEDVI）, intrathoracic blood volume index （ITBVI）, and extravascular lung water index （EVLWl） were obtained after injection of cold saline via the misplaced SCV catheter. Then, the misplaced SCV catheter was removed and IJV access was constructed for a further set of TPTD variables. Comparisons were made between the TPTD results measured through the IJV and mis- placed SCV accesses. Results： A total of 104 measurements were made from TPTD curves after injection of cold saline via the IJV and misplaced SCV accesses. Bland-Altman analysis demonstrated an overestimation of ＋111.40 ml/m2 （limits of agreement： 6.13 and 216.70 ml/m2） for GEDVI and ITBVI after a misplaced SCV injection. There were no significant influences on CI and EVLWI. The biases of ＋0.17 L/（min.m2） for CI and ＋0.17 ml/kg for EVLWI were re- vealed by Bland-Altman analysis. Conclusions： The malposition of an SCV catheter does influence the accuracy of TPTD variables, especially GEDVI and ITBVI. The position of the SCV catheter should be confirmed by chest X-ray in order to make good use of the TPTD measurements.展开更多

The internal jugular vein or subclavian vein is the routine target. Arterial injury is not uncommon during the procedure but is potentially devastating in spite of the safety and advantages of the Seldinger technique. Compressing of the airway by a hematoma, as well as hemothorax, pseudoaneurysm, arteriovenous fistula, stroke, and even death, has been well-described.展开更多
