A trained physician should insert a PICC, but any trained medical professional, such as a specially trained nurse, can perform an insertion. Appropriate PICC placement reduces complications, such as malposition and malfunction of the catheter, venous thrombosis, and infections, and overall catheter performance is better. Complications depend mainly on the adequacy of venous puncture or the positioning of the catheter tip. Better PICC performance depends on learning accurate techniques for insertion. Here, the overall procedure for bedside ultrasonography-guided PICC placement, including patient positioning, catheter preparation, venous assessment and measurement, overall technique, and catheter tip positioning, is described.","PeriodicalId":224399,"journal":{"name":"Trauma Image and Procedure","volume":"9 4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121352532","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Moreover, since BCI can be diagnosed through multiple serial tests, it is very important to always consider the possibility of BCI in high-risk patients . Diagnosis of BCI begins with suspicion of BCI, followed by repeated electrocardiograms, echocardiography, and cardiac biomarkers measurements along with intensive observation.","PeriodicalId":224399,"journal":{"name":"Trauma Image and Procedure","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134398582","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Complications that result from self-extubation range from laryngeal injury, respiratory distress, arrhythmia, pneumonia, to even death. With respect to patient safety, not only is prevention of self-extubation one of the most important goals in all intensive care units around the world, but also it is one of the most common mishaps in the area of intensive care. Since self-extubation and consequent re-intubation are unexpected events, they can embarrass the medical staff and negatively affect the treatment choice, and consequently, require other invasive procedures that may not have been necessary. The most important thing for patients exposed to self-extubation is to keep in mind the presence of airway damage, which can be confirmed through our experience as described here, through repeated re-intubations and eventually tracheostomy.","PeriodicalId":224399,"journal":{"name":"Trauma Image and Procedure","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128836775","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Repetitive imaging can be obtained and invasive treatment should be considered if these indices suggest hematoma exacerbation. Patients with abdominal trauma who have altered coagulation status should be carefully monitored for abdominal wall hematoma. Detecting abdominal wall hematoma is important because it may be the clue for potential intra-abdominal organ injury or delayed complication.","PeriodicalId":224399,"journal":{"name":"Trauma Image and Procedure","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121181611","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
