Objective:To provide current information related to central venous catheterization. Design:Review of literature relevant to central venous catheterization and its indications, insertion techniques, and prevention of complications. Results:Central venous catheterization can be lifesaving but is associated with complication rates of approximately 15%. Operator experience, familiarity with the advantages and disadvantages of the various catheterization sites, and strict attention to detail during…

Bedside Procedure: Retained Central Venous Catheter
TLDR
In this chapter, a representative case of retained CVC guidewire is presented and a brief discussion of CVC complications with emphasis on Guidewire malfunction is presented along with management and retrieval options.
Guide wire migration during femoral vein catheterization.
TLDR
In a patient who underwent femoral catheterization for acute hemodialysis, migration of guide wire through the systemic circulation from the femoral vein to the jugular vein is reported.
Retrospective analysis of incidence of complications of central venous catheterization at an intensive care unit
Objectives: To compare mechanical, infectious, and thrombotic complications of internal jugular; subclavian and femoral venous catheterization at an post surgical and medical intensive care…
Accesos venosos centrales
TLDR
In this review, indications, contraindications, insertion technique, use of ultrasound, and how to prevent complications are analyzed.
CENTRAL VENOUS CATHETERISATION- PERILS AND PITFALLS IN CRITICAL CARE
Central or Peripheral Catheters for Initial Venous Access of ICU Patients: A Randomized Controlled Trial
TLDR
In ICU patients with equal central or peripheral venous access requirement, central venous catheters should preferably be inserted: a strategy associated with less major complications.
Central Line Placement
TLDR
In this chapter, appropriate catheter site selection is discussed, the pertinent anatomy and technique for insertion of CVCs are reviewed, and the potential complications and their management are discussed.

This paper reports the results of a prospective survey of 266 attempted central venous catheterisations by various routes, evaluating their success rate and incidence of immediate complications and…
Complications and failures of subclavian-vein catheterization.
TLDR
A prospective randomized trial of ultrasound-guided location of the subclavian vein as compared with standard insertion procedures, finding that ultrasound guidance had no effect on the rate of complications or failures of subClavian-vein catheterization.
[Ultrasound guidance for placement of central venous catheters].
TLDR
Two methods using ultrasound for central venous cannulation are described and the use of ultrasound guidance, particularly in high-risk patients, is recommended.
Use of femoral venous catheters in critically ill adults: Prospective study
TLDR
Femoral venous catheterization offers an alternative site of insertion to the subclavian and jugular veins for central venous access in the critically ill and the occurrence rate of clinically important complications is acceptably low.
Evaluation of formulas for optimal positioning of central venous catheters.
TLDR
The formulas can accurately predict the required length of catheters and thereby reduce the possibility of complications and save time and expense.
Complications of femoral and subclavian venous catheterization in critically ill patients: a randomized controlled trial.
Decreasing catheter-related infection and hospital costs by continuous quality improvement.
TLDR
The number of unnecessary guidewire exchanges of existing catheters is decreased by substituting suspected catheter-related sepsis for fever alone as an indication to change an indwelling catheter to decrease the hospital costs associated with guidewires exchanges and new catheter insertions.
A prospective evaluation of the use of femoral venous catheters in critically ill adults.
TLDR
Femoral venous catheterization with a polyurethane catheter is associated with an 8.5% frequency rate of femoral vein thrombosis, and offers an attractive alternate site of insertion to the jugular and subclavian veins for central venous access in the critically ill.
