病人的義務

在醫院裡,常常有長官或民眾要求醫護人員要盡其義務,
但,我們卻鮮少有人會注意,其實病人也有要盡其義務!

用超音波協助打 CVC需不需要照X光呢?



用 ultrasound-guided 打 CVC,打完後到底需不需要照X光呢?

以下的研究告訴我們,如果是為了排除是否有氣胸,可以直接用超音波檢測,不必另外照X光。但是,如果要做CVC的定位,可能還是要照X光。

No pneumothoraces were detected on chest x-ray in 1202 asymptomatic patients after ultrasound-guided central venous line placement.

With ultrasound-guided central line placement, is a postinsertion chest x-ray still necessary to assess for pneumothorax? Researchers reviewed records for 1258 real-time, ultrasound-guided, internal jugular vein central line placements and 4 external jugular vein placements performed in 1066 patients during 4 years in the vascular and interventional radiology suite at a single U.S. hospital.

Postprocedure upright chest x-rays were obtained in 1202 patients (after an average of 65 minutes); supine chest x-rays were performed as part of routine care in 66 hospitalized and bedridden patients. No patient had symptoms or radiographic evidence of pneumothorax. The authors conclude that eliminating routine postprocedure x-rays would save time and costs and reduce radiation exposure.

Comment: This study was performed in a more controlled environment than an emergency department. Chest x-ray is not necessary after ultrasound-guided internal jugular vein cannulation when assessment of catheter positioning is not needed. When pneumothorax is suspected, bedside ultrasound for lung sliding likely is a better test than a chest x-ray (JW Emerg Med Nov 6 2009).
