Abstract:Objective To study the feasibility and value of medium length catheter in clinical anesthesia infusion. Methods A total of 40 patients with acute cholecystitis who underwent open cholecystectomy in Anesthesia Surgery Center of Tongzhou District Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Nantong City in Jiangsu Province from January 2020 to November 2021 were selected. According to random number table method, they were divided into group A and group B, 20 cases in each group. Group A was placed with medium length catheter as an intravenous infusion tool under ultrasound guidance. Peripheral short vein indwelling needle was routinely placed in group B. The puncture success rate, average catheter replacement time and catheter related complications were observed and compared between the two groups. Results Before anesthesia, the puncture success rate of group A was higher than that of group B, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The average replacement time of catheter in group A was longer than that in group B, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). During catheter indwelling, the total incidence of catheter-related complications in group A was less than that in group B, with statistically significant difference (P<0.05). Conclusion In clinical anesthesia, it is safe and feasible to use ultrasound visualization technology to place medium length catheter as infusion tool, with fewer complications. It is worthy of further study and generalization.
