Vascular Access Emergency Conference Vietnam 2014
Peripheral Sites • Veins of the Hand • 1. Digital Dorsal veins2. Dorsal Metacarpal veins3. Dorsal venous network4. Cephalic vein5. Basilic vein
Peripheral Sites • Veins of the Forearm • 1. Cephalic vein2. Median Cubital vein3. Accessory Cephalic vein4. Basilic vein5. Cephalic vein6. Median antebrachial vein
Peripheral IV • Butterfly & angiocaths • Short catheters generally placed in forearm, hand or scalp veins • Short term therapy and unable to handle caustic chemicals (chemotherapy)
IO Indications • Adult Resuscitation • Altered Level of Consciousness • Respiratory Compromise • Hemodynamic Instability • Failed peripheral IV access
Contraindications • Fracture • Local Infection • Prosthesis • Recent IO in the same extremity (24 hours) • Absence of Anatomical Landmarks (Excess Tissue)
Historic Complications for IO devices • Extravasation • Compartment syndrome • Dislodgement • Fracture • Failure (Device or user in origin) • Pain • Infection Precise insertion and placement of the IO device is imperative for success
3 Needle Set Lengths Length & color are the only differences between these Catheters EZ-IO PD 15 mm Needle Set 5 mm mark EZ-IO AD 25 mm Needle Set 15 gauge Catheter EZ-IO LD 45 mm Needle Set
45 mm Needle Set 5 mm mark 25 mm Needle Set 5 mm mark needle set pending FDA clearance Note that the 5 mm mark is NOT visible above the skin Adipose or muscle tissue thickness should be considered prior to IO insertion

What to do next? • Flush Extension Set with Normal Saline • Attach Extension Set • Pull Back on Syringe plunger to check for return • Flush with Saline • Remove and discard syringe
Subclavian Anatomy • Begins as axillary vein, eventually joins the IJ to become the inominate or brachiocephalic • Anterior scalene separates the SCA from SCV • Most common is infraclavicular approach
Femoral anatomy • Vein is medial to the artery • Nerve • Artery • Vein • Lymphatic • Superficial distal to inguinal ligament, then dives deep • 0.5-2cm inferior to the inguinal ligament
Procedure – Median approach • Needle insertion – approximately one half the distance between the mastoid and the sternal notch • 20-30 degree needle angle • Seldinger technique – watch for dysrhythmias
Complications • Bleeding / bruising / haematoma • Thrombo-phlebitis • Extravasation of fluids • Inflammation / Infection to site / access • Clots / occlusion • Arterial puncture • AV fistula • Pseudoaneurysm • Osteomyelitis (IO) • Pneumothorax (subclavian + IJ CVC) • Malposition
