| Popis: | Axillary vein puncture guided by ultrasound (US-Ax) versus cephalic vein dissection in pacemaker and defibrillator implant: a multicenter randomized clinical trial is a recently published study in which 88 patients were randomized in a 1:1 fashion to one of the two methods. Even being performed by operators with not previous ultrasound-guided axillary vein puncture experience, this group presented a higher success rate, lower procedural time and comparable complication incidence.Lay abstract Recently a study evaluating two different approaches to cardiac devices implant was published. In the study, 88 patients were assigned to one of two methods for this procedure. The operators had no previous experience in one of the methods, but it demonstrated a higher success rate, took less time and had the same number of complications as the method the doctors had experience in. This paper evaluated the study and discusses what changes might take place in clinics as a result of these findings. |
