PATIENT MONITORING AND CARE Reportable Conditions Rationale Patient Monitoring And Care ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Identifies signs and symptoms of complications and allows for immediate interventions. 1. Monitor the patient’s vital signs and assess level of consciousness before, during, and after the procedure. ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Ensures that catheter is in the proper location for monitoring. Allows assessment of a, c and v waves and measurement of pressure. 2. If the catheter was placed for obtaining CVP measurement, assess the waveform. ,[object Object],Post insertion bleeding may occur in a patient with coagulopathies or arterial punctures, multiple attempts at vein access, or with the use of through-the-needle introducer designs for insertion. 3. Observe the catheter site for bleeding or hematoma every 15 to 30 minutes for the first 2 hours after insertion. ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Abnormal heart and lung sounds may indicate cardiac tamponade, pneumothorax, or hemothorax. 4. Assess heart and lung sounds before and after the procedure. ,[object Object],[object Object],May decrease mortality if recognized Early. 5. Monitor for signs and symptoms of  complications.

NURSE’S NOTES SAMPLE: 11/08/1432 (1000HR) – THE PATIENT HAS NO PERIPHERAL LINE ACCESS AND IN NEED OF INTRAVENOUS ACCESS DUE TO SEVERE SHOCK. SO, UNDER LOCAL ANESTHESIA, A 7 FRENCH, TRIPLE LUMEN CENTRAL VENOUS CATHETER WAS INSERTED BY DR. BASSAM TAHA  AT THE RIGHT SUBCLAVIAN AND SUTURED IN PLACE AT LEVEL 15 CM. THE AREA WAS CLEANED AND DRESSING (OPSITE) WAS APPLIED PROPERLY AND NEATLY. CHEST X-RAY WAS TAKEN AND SHOWING THE TIP OF THE CATHETER PROPERLY IN PLACE WITHIN THE SUPERIOR VENA CAVA. INITIAL CVP MEASURED 10 CM H2O. THE PATIENT TOLERATED THE PROCEDURE WITHOUT ANY COMPLICATIONS. VITAL SIGNS ARE STABLE WITH HR 75Bpm, RR 20 CYCLES/MIN, BP 120/80 mm Hg, SPO2 98% ON SIMV VENTILATORY SUPPORT, TPR 37.5 DEGREES CENTIGRADE. PRIOR TO THE PROCEDURE, CONSENT WAS SECURED.

Editor's Notes

  1. Basic materials section involves going through an actual catheter kit with them and demonstrating technique
  2. Central venous pressure monitoring – for those whose volume status needs to be managed closely Volume loading – flow rate through a 14 gauge peripheral line is twice that of a 20cm 16 gauge central venous catheter Concentrated solutions – potassium chloride, hyperosmolar saline, chemo agents. Or vasoactive substances like epi, dopamine. All can cause tissue irritation or necrosis if extravasated in peripheral line
  3. Bleeding disorders – even with platelet counts &lt;50,000, bleeding is uncommon and easily managed, in the absence of arterial puncture Distorted local anatomy – ultrasound may help
  4. Arm abduction flattens the deltoid bulge Trendelenburg reduces incidence of air embolism Shoulders – as the shoulder falls backward, the space between the clavicle and first rib narrows, making the subclavian vein less accessible Right side preferred – lower pleural dome and thoracic duct on left Junction of the middle and medial thirds of the clavicle – here the vein in just posterior to the clavicle and just above the first rib which acts as a barrier to the pleura.
  5. UNC preferred site – in the hospital manual
  6. NAVEL – N = nerve, A = artery, V = vein, E = empty space, L = lymphatics (must be read from right side of body, L is always medial. So it is spelled backwards from the left side approach
  7. Go over kits and demonstrate procedure with students
