Clinical Trial Summary

Ultrasound-guided axillary vein catheterization can be performed via the proximal or distal approach of the axillary vein. The aim of our study is to compare the first puncture success rate and safety between the two approaches of ultrasound-guided axillary vein catheterization in cardiac surgical patients with risk of bleeding.


Description:

For patients after cardiac surgery, antiplatelet drugs or anticoagulants are usually used for preventing thrombosis. Use of those drugs is associated with increased risk of bleeding. Any invasive procedures may put those patients at additional risk of bleeding. Ultrasound (US) has become widely accepted to guide safe and accurate central venous catheterization.The axillary vein in the infraclavicular area is an alternative choice for subclavian vein. Ultrasound images of the infraclavicular axillary vein differ according to its position. Proximal infraclavicular axillary vein is a direct continuation of the subclavian vein. The associated anatomy is simple and the vein is straight and thick in longitudinal axis view, which are in favor of successful puncture. Meanwhile, distal axillary vein also has anatomical advantages for safe and successful cannulations. Distal axillary vein lies further away from the artery and chest wall, and the overlap between distal axillary vein and artery gets greater on moving laterally. It is still unknow that one of the puncture approaches is superior to the other. Until now, there are no studies comparing two puncture approaches in high bleeding risk patients. The aim of the study is to compare the success rate of first puncture and safety of US-guided proximal and distal axillary venous catheterization in cardiac surgery patients with risk of bleeding.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary First puncture success rate Central venous catheter established upon first punction attempt approximately 3 minutes
Secondary The approach success rate the number of successful cannulation within the first two attempts within 1 hours
Secondary Complication rate major bleeding, minor bleeding, arterial puncture, pneumothorax, nerve injuries, catheter misplacement Day 1
Secondary time to successful cannulation the time from skin puncture until completion of cannula insertion within 1 hours
Secondary access time defined as the time between penetration of skin and aspiration of venous blood into the syringe within 1 hours
Secondary overall success rate defined as the number of successful cannulation in targeted axillary vein within four attempts (the first two attempts using the randomized approach, third and fourth attempts using the non-randomized approach) within 1 hours
Secondary the number of attempts the number of attempts until successful cannulation within 1 hours
