Indications:
Central venous pressure monitoring, as a guide to
blood volume replacement.
Parental feeding with hypertonic solutions, which
would damage peripheral veins.
Intravenous administration of fluids or drugs when
other veins are unavailable.
Emergency blood transfusion provided a blood
warmer is used.
Equipment:
CVC insertion tray.
Sterile gloves, mask.
Sterile gown.
CVC catheter
Single lumen 16 G -30 cm for left subclavian,
20 cm for other routs.
Multilumen - 2, 3 & 4 lumen lines available.
Iodine solution.
Lidocaine 1%, 5 ml.
Opsite dressing
2/0 black silk suture
Incontinence sheet
3-ways stop-cock tap with 6 extension tubing- if
single lumen CVC used
10 ml syringe, Heparin and saline for priming
Multilumen Catheter.
CVP manometer set.
Procedure:
Reinforce the doctors explanation of the procedure, and
answer the patient questions.
Place the patient in Trendelenburgs position (to dilate the
veins and reduce the risk of air embolism).
For subclavian insertion, place a rolled blanket under the
opposite shoulder (to extend the neck, snaking anatomic
landmarks inure visible).
Turn the patients head away from the site (to prevent
possible contamination from airborne pathogens and to make
the site more accessible).
CVP Monitoring:
Place the patient in a supine position and decide the
zero point on the manometer.
Tap to patient is switched off and fluid allowed
running from the bag up the manometer
The tap is then turned from the manometer to the
patient.
Complications:
Complications can occur at any time during the
infusion therapy.
Traumatic complications, such as pneurnothorax,
typically occur upon catheter insertion but may not be
noticed until after the procedure is completed.
Systemic complications, such as sepsis, typically occur
later during infusion therapy.
Other complications include phlebitis, arrhythmias.
Procedure:
Review the clients chart for the data of catheter insertion
and the last dressing change or time of insertion. (This
provides a base from which to make comparisons).
Help the client to assume supine or semi-fowlers
position; (to facilitate changing of the dressing).
Ask the client to turn his/her face from the insertion site;
(to reduce the transmission of microorganisms from the
client supper respiratory tract to the catheter insertion
site).
Procedure:
Explain the procedure to the patient.
Place the patient in a supine position, (to prevent
emboli,),
Wash your hands and put on clean gloves and a mask.
Turn off all infusions and clamp the catheter, prepare a
sterile field; using sterile drape.
Remove and discard the old dressing and change to
sterile gloves.
