Abstract

Background: Procedures involving pediatric group is always challenging. Our aim is to compare conventional anatomical landmark technique versus the ultrasound-guided technique for Subclavian vein (SCV) cannulation in pediatric cardiac surgical patients. Material and Methods:100 patients between 2-12 years who required Subclavian vein (SCV) cannulation received catheter insertion either by conventional [n=50] or by ultrasound-guided technique [n=50] in cardiac surgeries. We observed time taken for preparation for the procedure, failed catheter placement, risk of complications, number of attempts and time to successful catheterization and infection rate, cost, incidence of venous thrombosis by ultrasound on removal of catheter in both the group
