Cannulation via the external jugular vein——An alternative to ...
2023年11月18日 · This study reported a 7-year paediatric practice in our department that the experienced nurse used the central venous catheters to perform the PICC via the EJV approach for children without GA.
External Jugular Venous Access in Children - journals.lww.com
The EJV route for intravenous fluid resuscitation and inotropic infusion in pediatric patients seems to be underutilized by pediatricians. As per our observations in this pilot study, vasoactive agents can be successfully and safely infused through the EJV in the majority of children.
Simplify long-term venous access via external jugular vein in children …
2021年5月17日 · In the absence of USG, the option of an external jugular vein (EJV) with fewer complications seems a viable alternative, particularly for practitioners who have not mastered the Seldinger technique. The EJV topography that may lead to failure of the blinded technique warrants additional methods to improve success during planning [ 11 ].
External jugular vein cannulation – A double-edged sword - PMC
External jugular vein (EJV) cannulation is an indispensable armour in establishing quick venous access to the central compartment. In the current scenario of the coronavirus disease (COVID)-19 pandemic, its use is even more crucial as the insertion of central venous catheter (CVC) is difficult with personal protective equipment due to logistic ...
Open tunneled central line insertion in children - PubMed
Background/purpose: Tunneled central venous catheters (TCVCs) are commonly used to manage pediatric patients with chronic disease. The aim of this study is to compare the outcomes of external jugular vein (EJV) and internal jugular vein (IJV) tunneled catheters inserted using the open technique.
The “branching external jugular vein”: an unreported clinically ...
2020年11月30日 · Central venous access is usually accomplished through the internal jugular vein (IJV), external jugular vein (EJV) or subclavian vein (SCV) via either percutaneous or cut down approach [3].
External Jugular Venous Cutdown versus Percutaneous Technique …
We aimed to compare the external jugular vein (EJV) cutdown technique with the percutaneous technique for difficulties in insertion, maintenance, and other complications of chemoport placement in children. A retrospective study was carried out in ...
Percutaneous central venous catheterization through the external ...
The EJV is an excellent alternative anatomical location for the completion of PCVC in children. Placing the guide wire in a central position is not essential to the success rate of this approach. The proposed modified Seldinger technique allowed PCVC to be performed through the EJV safely and with a …

2019年12月30日 · Because of the inability to easily visualise the IJV, it’s tempting to use the external jugular vein (EJV) as a proxy for assessment of central venous pressure during clinical assessment. However, because the EJV typically branches at a right angle from the subclavian vein (unlike the IJV which sits in a straight line above the right atrium ...
Open tunneled central line insertion in children - ScienceDirect
2018年11月1日 · This study confirms that open EJV tunneled central catheter insertion is achievable in 91% of children with outcomes comparable to IJV access. Children that require long-term central access are often ill with multiple comorbidities and in our experience, the EJV provides easier and faster access.
