Clinical value of bedside ultrasound guided PICC in the treatment of critically ill patients
Objective To explore the application valule of bedside ultrasound guided peripherally inserted central catheter(PICC)in the treatment of critically ill patients.Methods 217 critically ill patients were selected as the subjects of this study.They were divided into a control group(108 cases)and a study group(109 cases)using a random number table method.The control group had 108 cases,while the study group had 109 cases.The control group used PICC intervention under conventional calibration,and the study group implemented bedside ultrasound-guided PICC intervention.The catheterization and complications were compared between the two groups.Results In the study group,the success rate of catheterization of 68.81%was significantly higher than 51.85%in the control group;the puncture frequency of(1.12±0.08)times was less than(2.56±1.85)times in the control group;the percentage of changing the puncture position of 2.75%was significantly lower than 9.26%in the control group;the catheterization time of(5.64±2.14)min was shorter than(16.48±5.68)min in the control group;the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The incidence of complications of 19.27%in the study group was significantly lower than 47.22%in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion The use of bedside ultrasound guided PICC in the treatment of critically ill patients has high safety and can effectively reduce the occurrence of complications.It has important clinical significance and is worthy of widespread promotion and application.
