Abstract:
Objective To observe and compare anatomical position between pediatric internal jugular vein and common carotid artery in children patients of different ages with ultrasonic technique.Methods Four hundred and ninety-six cases of pediatric patients undergoing selective operation,ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ,were selected in this study,they were 380 males and 116 females ranging from 0 to 12 years.Image position of internal jugular vein and common carotid artery above the clavicle were detected with ultrasonic technique for all pediatric patients,positions of internal jugular vein and common carotid artery for different patients were classified according to different angles,anatomical position between pediatric internal jugular vein and common carotid artery in different age groups (newborn group,infant group,toddler group,preschool children group and school-age children group) were compared.Results In area between 0°-30°,the ratios of right puncture of infant group,toddler group,preschool children group and school-age children group were significantly higher than those of the left (infant group: 42.3% vs 0%;toddler group: 48.8% vs 1.6%;preschool children group: 57.5% vs 2.7%;school-age children group: 58.0% vs 2.1%)(P<0.01).In area between 30°-60°,the ratios of the right puncture in all groups were significantly higher than those of the left (newborn group: 45.0% vs 10%;infant group: 44.2% vs 23.1%;toddler group: 46.3% vs 19.5%;preschool children group: 35.4% vs 19.5%;school-age children group: 35.1% vs 20.2%) (P<0.05 or P<0.01).In areas between 60°-90°and at 90°,the ratios of the right puncture in infant group,young children group,preschool children group and school-age children group were significantly higher than those of the left (P<0.01).In areas of >90°,there was no statistical difference between the ratios of the right puncture and the left in all groups.Conclusion The success rate of right internal jugular vein puncture of children was higher than that of the left.Conditions in the newborn group were different from that in the other age groups.
