Prospective comparison of ultrasound and CXR for confirmation of central vascular catheter placement

Abstract: Objective To prospectively compare ultrasound (US) versus CXR for confirmation of central vascular catheter (CVC) placement. Secondary objective was to determine the incidence of pneumothorax (PTX) and compare US with CXR completion times. Methods Investigators performed the US saline flush echo test, and evaluated each anterior hemithorax for pleural sliding with US after subclavian or internal jugular CVC placement. Measurements and main results 151 total (135 in the emergency department, 16 in the intensive… Show more

“…Finally, 17 full‐text articles were assessed (with the exception of 1 abstract whose full text could not be retrieved). Four studies and 1 abstract were included in the final analysis, as summarized in Table . All studies were limited to the emergency or ICU setting where a standard contrast‐enhanced US technique was used to determine the correct placement of an internal jugular or subclavian central venous line.…”

“…All studies were limited to the emergency or ICU setting where a standard contrast‐enhanced US technique was used to determine the correct placement of an internal jugular or subclavian central venous line. The technique for placement of the central venous catheter was described identically (US‐guided Seldinger technique) in all studies, and all articles described an identical contrast‐enhanced US technique . The US examinations were performed by either emergency physicians or intensivists and confirmed by standard chest radiography done after the US examinations in all studies.…”
