Ultrasound Guided Axillary Versus Jugular Central Venous Catheterization

The main intention of this study is to compare two ultrasound-guided central venous catheterization procedures namely: real-time, ultrasound-guided, in plane axillary vein catheterization and real-time, ultrasound-guided, out of plane jugular vein catheterization in terms of venipuncture, catheterization success, early mechanical complication and catheter-related infection rate in mechanically ventilated patients admitted to the intensive care unit.

Inclusion criteria

  • mechanically ventilated intensive care patients with clinical indications for central venous line placement

Exclusion criteria

  • trauma and hematoma at the catheterization site
  • major blood coagulation disorders coincided with active bleeding
  • anatomical abnormalities at the catheterization site
  • infection at the catheterization site

Treatment and study plan

Real-time ultrasound-guided central vein catheterization.

Procedure

Primary outcomes

  1. Procedure success rate

    Time frame: 24 hours

    to define catheterization success rate

Secondary outcomes

  1. Incidence of Catheter colonization

    Time frame: 1 month

    to assess the incidence of catheter colonization after removal

  2. Incidence of catheter-related bloodstream infection

    Time frame: 1 month

    to assess the incidence of catheter-related bloodstream infection

  3. Procedure complication rate

    Time frame: 24 hours

    to assess the early mechanical complication rate
