Abstract

We have conducted our study in 80 patients admitted in the general ICU, requiring internal jugular vein cannulation. We formed 2 groups of 40 patients each that is:- Group 1 (short axis) and Group 2 (long axis). Under USG guidance, we cannulated the internal jugular vein with short axis view in group 1 and long axis view in group 2. Meanwhile the time taken to perform these cannulations was noted and then compared. After the study, we found that the internal jugular vein was cannulated much faster in short axis group as compared to the long axis group. Keywords: Central venous cannulation, internal jugular vein, USG guided approach, short axis versus long axis technique.
