6 maj 2024 · The success of central venous catheterisation largely depends on the cross-sectional area (CSA) of the internal jugular vein (IJV). While techniques like the Trendelenburg position have been traditionally used to increase IJV CSA, recent studies suggest its ineffectiveness in patients with obesity.
17 maj 2019 · This study investigated the effect of different degrees of passive leg raising (PLR) on the internal jugular vein (IJV) cross-sectional area (CSA) and on the success rate of IJV cannulation in patients waiting for thoracic surgery, to analyze whether body mass index (BMI), gender, age, fasting time and preoperative rehydration have any impact ...
Selection criteria for patients varied, most commonly defined by identification of compression of the internal jugular vein. The 17 studies included in this review ranged from case reports to large single-center cohort studies. The most used surgical intervention was styloidectomy.
6 gru 2018 · The surgical treatment of IJV aneurysms aims to repair the diseased vessels, ideally preserving their function. Saccular venous aneurysms can be treated by simple tangential aneurysmectomy, but fusiform aneurysms need to be entirely resected after IJV ligation or—if feasible—reconstructed with autologous grafts.
Internal jugular vein thrombosis (IJVT) is an unusual case of vascular disease of the upper limb veins that could result in multiple complications if left untreated. IJVT can be subdivided into primary and secondary. Primary IJVT is when thrombosis happens to someone without known risk factors.
In this study we evaluated the effect of passive leg elevation (LE) and Trendelenburg (T) position on the cross-sectional area (CSA) of the internal jugular vein (IJV) in infants and young children undergoing surgery for congenital heart disease.
17 maj 2019 · Objectives: To compare internal jugular vein and subclavian vein access for central venous catheterization in terms of success rate and complications. Design: A 1:1 randomized controlled...
