Abstrakt: | Unlabelled: Introduction of the central venous access (CVA) in children treated for malignancies is usually planned procedure. Some patients however require the CVA in emergency. Also in emergency, insertion of CVA should be feasible and safe. The standard technique of CVA insertion is through surgically approached internal jugular vein. This technique requires correct blood coagulation and general anaesthesia in younger patients. Alternative ways of the CVA insertion (via cephalic vein, cubital vein or external jugular vein) seem safe also in case of thrombocytopenia (< 40,000/mm3) and coagulopathy. Aim of the report is to compare efficacy (central tip of the catheter in the superior vena cava on X-ray) and safety (complication rate) of both techniques. Patients: 166 children treated for malignancies aged from 0 to 16 years. The standard technique was used in 109 and in 107 was successful. The alternative technique was used in 57 and in 50 was successful. There were no acute complications, the late ones were observed in 7 of 107 in the standard technique group and in 9 of 50 in the alternative technique group. The alternative ways of the CVA introduction are effective and safe, however the longer X-ray monitoring is necessary. |
