Advantage of S.C cannulaion
Consistent identifiable landmarksLow infection rate
Relatively high patient comfortEasier long term catheter maintenanceIdeal site in hypovolaemic shock patients as
the vein does not collapse due to fibrousattachments

contraindications
No absolute contraindicationsIpsilateral AV fistulaInfection of the siteVenous thrombosis at or near the site of insertionPresence of venous filters(guidewire should not
be inserted more than 20 cm)Severe coagulopathy and thrombocytopenia.(femoral route is preferred)combative patients

Technique
Seldinger techniqueUse introducing needle to locate veinWire is threaded through the needleNeedle is removedSkin and vessel are dilatedCatheter is placed over the wire
Wire is removedCatheter is secured in place

The procedure
ConsentPositioning vertical shoulder roll between theshoulder, this opens up the deltopectoral groove
and makes more parallel access to the vein ,tredelenberg, arm adducted +/_ pulled towardsfoot, head turned to oppsite sideMaximal barrier protection gown, cap, mask,glovesStand on the shoulder side of the patientSterile skin preparation with 2% chlorhexideineLarge drape with a central opening

Approach
Infraclavicular or supraclavicularOpen (usually by a surgeon) or percutaneous
Local anaesthesia 1% solution at the puncturesiteInfraclavicular approach - Needle inserted 2
cm below the mid point of clavicle directingtowards suprasternal notch, angle should beparallel to the floorThreading of the guidewire not > 20 cm

Dilatation of skin and s.c tissuesThreading the catheterAim to insert the catheter upto atrio caval junctionAll port aspirated and flushed with heparinisedsaline
Suturing to the skin with nylon sutureSterile, transparent dressingChest x ray for checking positionWriting a note

Tips
After 3-4 tries, let someone else tryGet chest x-ray after unsuccessful attemptIf attempt at one site fails, try new site on same side toavoid bilateral complicationsHalt positive pressure ventilation as the needle penetratesthe chest wall in subclavian approachIf you meet resistance while inserting the guide wire,withdraw slightly and rotate the wire and re-advance
Align the bevel with the syringe markingsUse the vein on the same side as the pneumothoraxWithdraw slowly, you will often hit the vein on the way out
