Have the patient lie supine with the feet elevated (Trendelenburg position).The contents of the kit are enclosed in a sterile tray wrapped with a sterile cover. Commonly marketed CVC kits generally contain the CVC (in this case a triple-lumen catheter), a j-tip guide wire, a dilator, a #11 scalpel, an introducer needle, 1% lidocaine, several 3 and 5 mL syringes, several smaller needles (usually 20, 22, and 23 gauge), single straight-suture needle with suture, CVC clamp, dressing, gauze, drape, and chlorhexidine. Collect the supplies, including CVC kit, sterile gown, sterile gloves, sterile ultrasound probe cover, bonnet, mask, saline flushes, and any special dressings or antibiotic barriers required at your institution. The procedure for placing any type of CVC is the same.ġ.
For purposes of this discussion, we will place a triple-lumen CVC, as this is commonly needed when multiple different medications need to be delivered simultaneously. CVCs may a single lumen, a double lumen, or a triple lumen. There are several types of CVC kits commonly available marketed by different manufacturers. In general, however, the right IJ vein is preferred because of its straight route to the superior vena cava (SVC), which makes malposition of the catheter less likely. An IJ CVC can be placed in either the right or the left IJ vein. Successful placement of a CVC using ultrasound consists of a working understanding of the target anatomy, facility with procedural ultrasound, and fluidity in Seldinger technique. The dilator is then removed, and the catheter is passed over the wire until it is appropriately positioned within the vessel.

The needle is removed, and a dilator is passed over the wire to dilate the skin and soft tissue to the level of the vessel. A guide wire is then passed thought the needle until it is appropriately positioned within the vessel. First, the target vessel is cannulated with an 18 gauge thin-walled needle. In the case of CVC insertion, the device is an intravascular catheter and the target vessel is a central vein.
Seldinger technique is an introduction of a device into the body over a guide wire, which is inserted through a thin-walled needle. It is also necessary to have the psychomotor skills of vessel cannulation under ultrasound guidance. It is therefore imperative to understand the anatomy, the relationship between the IJ and the carotid artery, and their appearance on ultrasound. Safe reliable placement of a central venous catheter (CVC) in the internal jugular (IJ) vein using ultrasound guidance has become the standard of care.
