Cardiac Catheterization II: Right Heart Catheterization

1.5K
Right Heart Catheterization: An OverviewRight heart catheterization is an invasive diagnostic procedure that measures right-sided cardiac and pulmonary artery pressures, calculates cardiac output, and identifies intracardiac shunts. It provides detailed hemodynamic data essential for diagnosing and managing various cardiovascular conditions, such as pulmonary hypertension.Access SitesCommon access sites for right heart catheterization include the internal jugular vein in the neck region, the...

Parentral Nutrition: Centeral and Peripheral Parental Nutrition

1.3K
Parenteral Nutrition (PN) delivers essential nutrients directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system. It is commonly used for individuals with severe digestive disorders or conditions that prevent normal nutrient absorption.
PN can be administered through two primary routes:
1. Central Parenteral Nutrition (CPN):
CPN involves delivering a high concentration of nutrients through a large vein. This is typically achieved using a Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC) or,...

Local Anesthetics: Clinical Application as Intravenous Regional Anesthesia

1.7K
Intravenous regional anesthesia or the Bier block technique is used to anesthetize a specific limb or extremity. It uses exsanguinated or blood-drained vessels to transport local anesthetics or LAs to the peripheral nerve trunks. Lidocaine without vasoconstrictors like epinephrine is most commonly used for this technique. Other drugs used are prilocaine, ropivacaine, and chloroprocaine. Bupivacaine is not recommended for this technique due to its high cardiac toxicity.
One of the advantages of...

Summary

Right ventricular failure post-left ventricular assist device (LVAD) is serious. A new percutaneous technique using the right internal jugular vein offers an alternative to sternotomy for temporary right ventricular assist device (RVAD) support.

Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Cardiovascular Surgery
  • Medical Devices

Background:

  • Right ventricular failure (RVF) is a significant complication following left ventricular assist device (LVAD) implantation, associated with high morbidity and mortality.
  • Current management for RVF often requires a temporary right ventricular assist device (RVAD), necessitating repeat sternotomy for implantation and explantation.
  • This invasive approach carries substantial risks and prolongs recovery time for critically ill patients.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a novel technique for percutaneous cannulation of the right internal jugular vein for temporary extracorporeal right ventricular support.
  • To present an alternative to surgical RVAD implantation in patients experiencing RVF after LVAD placement.
  • To evaluate the feasibility and potential benefits of a less invasive approach for RVAD support.

Main Methods:

  • Percutaneous insertion of a right internal jugular venous cannula.
  • Establishment of extracorporeal blood flow for right ventricular support.
  • Detailed description of the procedural technique and patient selection criteria.

Main Results:

  • Successful percutaneous cannulation of the right internal jugular vein was achieved.
  • Extracorporeal support for the right ventricle was established effectively.
  • The technique potentially avoids the need for repeat sternotomy, reducing procedural risks.

Conclusions:

  • Percutaneous right internal jugular cannulation is a feasible and potentially less invasive alternative for temporary RVAD support in patients with RVF post-LVAD.
  • This approach may offer a safer and more efficient option for managing RVF, avoiding the complications associated with re-sternotomy.
  • Further studies are warranted to fully assess the long-term outcomes and broader applicability of this technique.
