COMPARISON OF LANDMARK-GUIDED SUBCLAVIAN VERSUS ULTRASOUND-GUIDED INNOMINATE VEIN CANNULATION IN CHILDREN: A RETROSPECTIVE ANALYSIS OF COMPLICATIONS AND OUTCOMES

Published: Reading: 1 min

Topic overview

This retrospective study compares traditional landmark-based subclavian vein catheterization with ultrasound-guided innominate vein access in pediatric patients. The analysis evaluates complication rates and clinical outcomes to determine which technique offers superior safety for establishing central venous access in children.

Key takeaways

  • Ultrasound-guided innominate vein cannulation shows lower complication rates compared to landmark-guided subclavian approach in children.
  • US-IV technique reduces risks of pneumothorax and arterial puncture associated with traditional subclavian access.
  • Real-time ultrasound visualization improves first-pass success rates and procedural safety in pediatric central line placement.
  • Innominate vein cannulation offers anatomical advantages with larger vessel diameter and more favorable trajectory in pediatric patients.
