What is a subclassic catheter?

Subclavian vein is a vein under the collarbone that brings blood back from the arm. The catheter is a tubular system inserted into the body within the medical treatment. The subclavian catheter can be placed in a subclavian vein if the patient needs medication or nutrition administered intravenously if the doctor needs to measure blood pressure inside the vein or if the patient needs dialysis. This group includes a subclavian catheter, because the subclassic vein flows into the jugular vein and then into the heart. In some cases, a catheter is inserted instead of a peripheral vein, such as the back of the hand. These include cases where the peripheral veins of the patient cannot handle the catheter and when the drug to be administered cannot be administered in the peripheral vein (1 cm to 2 cm) in diameter in adults. Doctors have a high degree of success in the placement of catheters in this vein and the advantage of choosing a subclastic catheter is that the tube is not easily released when the patient moves his head. The disadvantage is that Subclavian catheters carry a higher risk of complications than other centralLunched venous catheters.

There are several ways to insert a subclassic catheter. The most commonly used method is to insert a needle with a small diameter into a vein and then pass through the needle with a thin guide. The needle is removed and the doctor uses the directive to place the catheter. The doctor may also place the needle of larger diameter in a vein and pass through the catheter over this needle into the vein. This method uses a larger needle than the first method, which increases the likelihood of accidental artery puncture.

The latest method is placed in a vein needle larger than the catheter. The catheter then passes through the needle into the vein. This method is used only for certain types of Subclavian catheterization, because the hole made by the needle is larger than the catheter, which increases the chance of leakage around the hole.

Potential complications of the Subclavian catheter include infection, air into a vein, broken catheter tips get into a vein and change in the rhythm of the heart rhythm. Inserting a catheter can also cause lung collapse by introducing air around the lungs and the introduction of the catheter can also damage the chest, causing blood to collect around the lungs and prevent it from spreading as normal. These two pulmonary problems are more common in Subclavian catheters than other central venous catheters.
