Abstract

Objective To explore the application of ultrasound- guide modified Seldinger technique for upper arm PICC insertion in infant patients. Methods Use the ultrasound-guide modified Seldinger technique to inserted PICC for 27 infant patients. Results All 27 cases were inserted successfully, success rate of the one puncture reached 92.6%. Conclusions By adequate preparation for infants, effective immobilization and good cooperation of operators, and combined with techniques which prevent PICC misplacement, overcome the shortcoming of bad vessel and non- compliance of infant patients, develop the advantage of ultrasound, could improve the rate of successful catheterization of upper arm PICC insertion in infant patients, and protect the vessels. Key words: Catheterization, central venous; Modified Seldinger technique; Infant
