Disease relevance of Venous Cutdown

 

High impact information on Venous Cutdown

  • The cephalic vein cutdown versus subclavian puncture for pacemaker/ICD lead implantation [2].
  • The intravascular oxygenator (IVOX) is a device made up of several hundred gas permeable hollow fibers that are inserted into the vena cava by femoral venous cutdown [3].
  • The double lumen Hickman right atrial catheter (Evermed Co., Palo Alto, Calif.) is usually inserted through an open venous cutdown into the internal jugular or cephalic vein [4].
  • Almost every NP (n = 71) had used fluorescein staining, and only 3 procedures--culdocentesis, venous cutdown, and insertion of pins for skeletal traction--had never been performed [5].
