    AbstractAn intravascular access line for the administration of life support drugs and volume expanders may be particularly difficult, especially in very small premature babies. We report on the successful use of an intraosseous accessline in an 800 grams preterm infant for the administration of drugs and fluid. The use and technique of an intraosseous access is an important emergency alternative which may be lifesaving, even in very preterm babies, when other methods fail.
