Meta Analysis[Central venous cannulation - always with ultrasound support?].
Central Venous Cannulation - Always with Ultrasound Support?. Ultrasound guided puncture (UGP) improves success and complication rates of central venous cannulation. By some authors UGP with imaging devices are strongly recommended for all cannulations of subclavian or internal jugular veins. ⋯ Each anaesthetist and intensive care physician should be able to perform central venous cannulation without a Doppler or ultrasound device. However, in cases of abnormal anatomy UGP can be helpful to prevent complications. Especially children, patients with coagulation disorders and physicians with limited experience in central venous cannulation can benefit from UGP.
