Central venous catheter (CVC) placement is a commonly performed procedure. More than 5 million CVC placements are performed annually in the United States, with nearly 45% of critical care patients and 8% of all inpatients requiring a CVC during their hospitalization. A novel wire-guided scalpel (GuideBlade; Ambitus Medical Supplies LLC, Oceanside, NY, USA) has recently been introduced into clinical practice. In this communication, we will describe how to use the device and discuss possible advantages associated with its routine use during CVC placement.
中心静脉导管(CVC)置入是一种常见的操作。在美国,每年进行超过500万次CVC置入,近45%的重症监护患者和8%的所有住院患者在住院期间需要置入CVC。一种新型的导丝引导手术刀(GuideBlade;美国纽约州 Oceanside 的 Ambitus Medical Supplies LLC 公司)最近已引入临床实践。在本交流中,我们将描述如何使用该设备,并讨论在CVC置入过程中常规使用它可能具有的优势。
