Ultrasound-Guided Catheter Placements – Safe and Precise Interventions
Catheter placement is a common interventional procedure used to drain fluids or provide access to veins and organs. At Saavy Clinic, ultrasound guidance ensures safe and accurate insertion, reducing risks and improving patient outcomes compared to blind techniques.
Why Ultrasound-Guided Catheter Placement is Important
- Enhanced Safety – Real-time imaging minimizes complications during catheter insertion.
- Accurate Placement – Ensures the catheter is positioned correctly for effective drainage or access.
- Minimally Invasive – Avoids the need for open surgery, offering quicker recovery and less discomfort.
When is it Recommended?
- Nephrostomy – For kidney drainage in cases of obstruction.
- Cholecystostomy – For gallbladder drainage when surgery is not immediately possible.
- Central Venous Catheterization – For safe vascular access in critically ill patients.
- Other fluid collections requiring targeted drainage
