Abstract:
Although uncommon, a trapped central venous catheter (CVC) can present a significant problem for the interventionalist and pose considerable risk to the patient. The use of chronic long-term CVCs is on the rise, with an average catheter dwell time of 10 months. Although all CVCs are prone to complications, chronic catheters exhibit a higher rate of complications. Chronic catheters are also at risk of becoming trapped, whereby they cannot be removed by standard technique. A simple, elegant technique to remove a trapped CVC via inserting an angioplasty balloon into the lumen of a stuck catheter

Abstract:
Implanted venous ports in children are commonly placed by pediatric interventional radiologists, primarily through the internal jugular vein to allow long-term delivery of intravenous access. The ideal location of the catheter tip is the junction of the superior vena cava and right atrium. High catheter tip positions may result in failure of the port catheter due to venous thrombosis, catheter occlusion, or fibrin sheath formation, whereas low catheter tip positions may cause catheter occlusion, cardiac arrhythmias, or perforation.

Abstract:
Haemodynamic resuscitation should target goals that reflect the tissue oxygen needs of an individual patient. Venous oximetry may be such a tool. Oxygen saturation of blood in the pulmonary artery contains venous blood from the whole body and is referred to as mixed oxygen saturation (SvO2). Measurement of oxygen saturation in blood obtained from a central venous catheter is referred to as central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2). Both values are not identical since a catheter placed into the superior vena cava only represents venous blood draining the upper body. While it is not possible, in

Abstract:
Central venous catheters are frequently placed to facilitate the care of patients with multiple conditions, often via jugular approach. Occasionally, the catheter tip can migrate after placement and become positioned within the azygos arch. This abnormal catheter positioning can lead to an increased number of complications, including catheter malfunction, thrombosis, or even rupture of the azygos vein requiring surgical intervention. Although invasive repositioning of the catheter is always an option, minimally invasive options can be attempted to repair azygos catheter malposition. Fortunatel

Abstract:
Recanalization of chronic venous occlusions is often difficult. Sharp recanalization of occluded central veins was first described in 1996, with subsequent further variations reported in the literature. The needle recanalization of chronic venous total occlusions (NRCVTO) technique may be employed where standard initial techniques have failed. Initial efforts to cross the occlusion should always begin with an angled or straight 0.035-in. glidewire together with a 4 Fr diagnostic catheter. The NRCVTO technique employs the use of a trans-septal needle together with a 0.014-in. guidewire. A targe

Abstract:
In patients requiring long-term chemotherapy, antibiotics, hemodialysis, or parenteral nutrition, central venous access is usually possible via catheter placement in the jugular, subclavian, or femoral veins. As these routes become complicated by thrombosis, stenosis, infection, or surgical intervention, the options for central venous catheter placement become limited, and direct puncture of the inferior vena cava (IVC) may be required. This chapter reviews the technique for placement of a catheter in the IVC via translumbar approach. Because direct access using anatomic landmarks can be chall

Vascular access is an essential requirement for the care of the critically ill cardiac patient, being necessary for drug and fluid delivery and monitoring of a patient’s haemodynamic response to an instigated therapy. The most common vascular access procedures conducted in the acute cardiac care unit are central venous and peripheral venous access, and arterial cannulation. Traditional landmark methods are associated with complication rates, ranging from 18 to 40%, depending on the site of access. The use of ultrasound to guide venous and arterial access has been shown to reduce the incidence

Although autogenous arteriovenous fistula creation is the gold-standard dialysis access, catheters represent between 40% and 60% of dialysis access in the United States. Catheters are placed for a variety of reasons, commonly as temporary access for acute renal failure or as a bridge to a more permanent access in patients with end-stage renal disease. Fibrin sheaths represent a heterogeneous matrix of cells and debris that form around catheters and are a known common cause of catheter failure and central venous stenosis.

Dysglycaemia is frequently seen in the intensive care unit (ICU). Hyperglycaemia, hypoglycaemia and glycaemic variability are all independently associated with mortality and morbidity in critically-ill patients. It is common practice to treat hypergycaemia in these patients, while at the same time preventing hypoglycaemia and glycaemic variability. Insulin infusion is preferred over oral anti–hyperglycaemic agents for glucose control in the ICU because of the highly unpredictable biological availability of oral anti-hyperglycaemic agents during critical illness.
