Q

What fluid is often used for reattaching fingers, for example?

Why?

A

Dextran

We don’t want to vasoconstrict vessels by using phenylephedrine and keeps the vessels slippery. It also prevents clots from forming.

36
Q

Ideal site for arterial cannulation

A
  • easy access
  • relatively superficial vessel
  • non-torturous vessel
  • collateral circulation distal to the site of cannulation
  • migration of thrombogenic material will have minimal impact
37
Q

Test for collateral circulation (3)

A
  • Allen’s test (5-10 second refill)
  • Doppler
  • Pulse oximeter
38
Q

Arterial cannulation sites (7)

  • R
  • U
  • D
  • B
  • F
  • P
  • A
A
  • radial
  • ulnar
  • dorsalis pedis
  • brachial
  • femoral
  • posterior tibial
  • axillary
39
Q

Benefit to cannulating radial artery

A
  • easy to cannulate
  • easy access
  • adequate collateral circulation (ulnar provides majority of blood flow to hand in 90% of patients)
40
Q

Benefit to cannulating ulnar artery

A
  • if majority of flow to hand is from radial artery then cannulate the ulnar.
  • If multiple attempts have been made to the radial resulting in hematoma, do NOT use the ulnar!!
41
Q

Radial and ulnar sites are contraindicated in patients with ______ _____.

A

Raynaud’s syndrom

42
Q

Cannulating in the brachial artery contraindications:

A
  • location close to elbow may cause kinking
  • collateral vessels may not be adequate in older patients with vascular disease
43
Q

Cannulating in the femoral artery contraindications

A
  • prone to pseudoaneurysm
  • atheroma formation following cardiac catheterization
  • may be only access for burn or trauma victims or for thoracic aortic aneurysm
  • high rate of ischemic complications
  • higher rate of infection
44
Q

Cannulating in the dorsalis pedis and posterior tibial points to keep in mind:

A
  • reasonable alternaative to radial or ulnar artery
  • not present in 5-12% of patients
  • incidence of thrombolytic occlusion (8%)
  • SHOULD NOT be used in patients with diabetes or peripheral vascular disease
  • Allen’s test possible by blanching big toe
45
Q

Cannulation in the axillary artery:

A

surrounds by the axillary nerve plexus–nerve damage

air or thrombus may quickly gain access to the cerebral circulation during flush

46
Q

When placing art line, need:

A
  • 20g IV catheter
  • lidocaine
  • 3ml syringe
  • betadyne prep
  • towel roll
  • transducer
  • 18g needle
47
Q

How to put in the art line… (4)

A
  • always explain to the patient
  • determine best site
  • place patients arm on secure board
  • PERFORM ALLEN’S TEST
48
Q

What to do when placing art line in:

A
  • ensure hand is in optimal position
  • palpate
  • prep
  • insert 20g catheter
  • YES, DO USE STEEP ANGLE
  • look for flash
  • advance guide wire
  • advance catheter
  • remove stylet
  • attach transducer tubing
49
Q

Radial artery cannulation risks:

A
  • vascular thrombosis
  • distal embolization
  • vascular spasm
  • accidental drug injection
  • infection
50
Q

  • Peripheral arm veins (PICC)–usually in basilic or cephalic, good for long term
  • femoral vein
  • external jugular
  • internal jugular
  • subclavian vein
54
