Efficacy of Ultrasoundâ€Guided Double Lumen Central Venous Catheter Insertion in Minimizing Mechanical Complications and Bloodstream Infections: An Empirical Evidence of Pakistan
The aim of the study was to compare the outcomes of ultrasoundâ€guided doubleâ€lumen central venous catheter (DLC) insertion and without ultrasound guidance in reducing mechanical complications and bloodstream infections. This quasiâ€experimental study was conducted at Urology Department in collaboration with the Anesthesia department at GMC Teaching Hospital Gujranwala. The study had 60 insertions in each group. The insertion duration ranged from 8â€50 days in Group A and 9â€60 days in the B group. Placements were done at the right internal jugular and right subclavian veins. Four patients in Group A and five patients in Group B experienced catheterâ€related bloodstream infections (CRBSI), but the difference was not significant. The Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) was 0â€10 in Group A and 0â€8 in Group B. Group A had no mechanical complications, while three patients in Group B experienced manageable complications. In conclusion, ultrasoundâ€guided DLC placement improves safety but does not reduce CRBSI.
