Abstract

Objective: To survey the success rate and complications of internal jugular vein cannulation by the long-axis approach. Subjects and methods: The study described a series of cases, carried out on 48 patients undergoing elective surgery and needing an internal jugular vein cannulation. The anesthesiologist with more than five years of experience used the long-axis technique to guide the placement of catheters for each patient. Primary outcomes include success rates and complication rates. Secondary outcomes include processing times and the number of percutaneous needles. Results: The technique has a 97.9% success rate; 2.1% of subcutaneous hematomas and 4.2% of percutaneous needle punctures were among the complications. The average execution time is 3.6 ±  1.8 minutes, and there are typically 1.2 ±  0.7 times as many needle passes. Conclusion: This study proved the efficacy and safety of the long-axis approach for internal venous cannulation. We understand that for best success, a skilled physician must perform this novel procedure, which has few risks.
