Abstract:
Objective To explore the value of ultrasound imaging in complications associated with venous catheterization.Methods Patients (n =853) underwent ultrasound imaging examination after venous catheterization.Ultrasonography manifestations of venous catheterization complications and clinical curative effect were analyzed and summarized.Results Phlebitis,thrombus and mechanical complications were found by ultrasound imaging examination.Pneumothorax,hemothorax,arterial puncture and hematoma were among the main mechanical complications.Among the 853 patients,85 cases (9.96%) were found to have complications by ultrasound examination,with 35 cases (4.10%) of phlebitis,26 cases (3.05%) of catheter-related thrombus and 24 cases (2.81%) of mechanical complications.Conclusions In summary,a variety of venous catheterization complications can be diagnosed using ultrasound imaging non-invasively,effectively and efficiently.Real-time ultrasound imaging examination can dynamically monitor the develop ment and evolution of venous catheterization complications and effectively evaluate outcomes.
