Ultrasound guided central venous catheterization of internal jugular vein on over 65-year-od patients versus blind technique
2004
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Performing a central venous catheterization (CVC) on older patients for long-term central intravenous therapy could be a very important procedure. It could be associated with a high incidence of related complications, especially on over 65-year-old, high risk, selected patients. METHODS: The authors analyzed the results of 72 central venous CVC of internal jugular vein performed on over 65-year-old patients with ultrasound (US) guide from January 1998 to April 2003. RESULTS: The average performing time was 4 min, with 98.7% of success, 0% of major complications, and 4.1% of minor complications (one mild vagal hypotension and two catheter dislocation). CONCLUSIONS:…
Comparison of central venous catheterization with and without ultrasound guide
2003
Purpose: To compare the effectiveness, safety and time needed to perform central venous catheterization (CVC) in the presence or absence of an ultrasound (US) guide. Methods: Between January 1999 and February 2002 we performed CVCs in 196 patients: 105 patients received US guided CVC (group I) and 91 patients had CVC without US guide (group II). Results: The average time to perform CVC was shorter with US guide (4 vs 7min). The utilization of the US guide was also associated with improved success (98.09% vs 91.2%, p < 0.025) and lack of major complications (0% vs 9.8%, p < 0.001). Conclusions: US-guided CVC affords an easier, safer and more rapid cannulation of a central vein. It is especia…
The immunohistochemical expression of leptin in lymph node metastasis from laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC)
2020
Introduction: Leptin is a proteohormone produced predominantly by white adipocytes and primarily known for its key role in the control of food intake and sense of satiety. From its discover leptin has been found in different body districts, involved in always new functions and processes. In the last years numerous relationships between leptin and cancer has been found. The aim of this study is to test the leptin positivity in human primitive laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) and in its lymph node metastasis. Materials and methods: Leptin positivity was detected by immunohistochemical analysis on pathological samples from 18 patients subjected to laryngectomy and neck dissection for SC…
Vantaggi degli ultrasuoni nel posizionamento di un agocannula nella vena giugulare interna (nuove note di tecnica)
2004
The authors analized the result of 175 central venous ca he- terization CVC. of internal jugular vein performed with the ultrasound guide (US) from January 1998 to October 2002. The average performing time was 45 minutes. 98.2% of success and 4% of complications (one pagal hypotension, one artery puncture, four catheter dislocation, one haeiuatoinai). The US guide CVC is a safe procedure with short performing time, low rate of failures and complications and high rate of success: it is helpful in all patients with vascular anatomical variations, with not visualized or Land marks and with coagulation disorders.
