Q

What are the possible risks of right sided central lines? 3 m

A
  1. Arrythmias
  2. Cardiac perforation
  3. Cardiac temponadeCardiac tamponade is a serious medical condition in which blood or fluids fill the space between the sac that encases the heart and the heart muscle. This places extreme pressure on your heart. The pressure prevents the heart’s ventricles from expanding fully and keeps your heart from functioning properly.

Q

how can pmneumoperitoneum be seen on a axr

A

riglers sign 2nd image triangle of gas in the upper right quadrant

The Rigler sign, also known as the double-wall sign, is a sign of pneumoperitoneum seen on an abdominal radiograph when gas is outlining both sides of the bowel wall, i.e. gas within the bowel’s lumen and gas within the peritoneal cavity.
