What is cvp ? CVP is the pressure measured at the
junction of the superior venae cavae and the right atrium.
It reflects the driving force for filling of the right atrium & ventricle.

DISADV OF INDIRECT ASSESMENT
Jugular veins may be impossible to identify in up to 20% of patients, and the bedside diagnosis of low, normal, or high CVP is often inaccurate, particularly in critically ill patients.
This problem is compounded in the perioperative period
As a result, direct measurement of CVP is frequently necessary in hemodynamically unstable patients and those undergoing major operations
![Page 11: CENTRAL VENOUS CATHETER](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061608/58f9b2dc760da3da068bd015/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
DIRECT ASSESMENT1. Fluid filled manometer connected to
central venous catheter- measured using a column of water in a marked manometer.
CVP is the height of the column in cms of H2O when the column is at the level of right atrium.
Advantage- simplicity to measure.
Disadvantage- Inability to analyze the CVP waveform.-Relatively slow response of the water column to changes in intrathoracic pressure.

METHODS OF DIRECT CVP MONITORING
transducer system: enables continuous readings which are displayed on a monitor.
![Page 15: CENTRAL VENOUS CATHETER](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061608/58f9b2dc760da3da068bd015/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
MONITORING WITH TRANSDUCERS
Transducers enable the pressure readings from invasive monitoring to be displayed on a monitor
To maintain patency of the cannula a bag of normal saline or heparinised saline should be connected to the transducer tubing and kept under continuous pressure of 300mmHg thus facilitating a continuous flush of 3mls/hr or it can be flushed intermittently manually.

THE CVP WAVEFORM The CVP waveform reflects changes in
right atrial pressure during the cardiac cycle
![Page 19: CENTRAL VENOUS CATHETER](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061608/58f9b2dc760da3da068bd015/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
CVP The CVP waveform consists of five phasic
events, three peaks (a, c, v) and two descents (x, y)
TYPE OF WAVE CAUSE CARDIAC CYCLE
a wave Atrial contraction DIASTOLE
c wave Bulging of tricuspid valve into RA during IVC
SYSTOLE
X descent Atrial relaxation SYSTOLE
V wave Filling of RA L/T rise in pressure
SYSTOLE
Y descent Opening of Tricuspid valve
DIASTOLE
![Page 20: CENTRAL VENOUS CATHETER](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061608/58f9b2dc760da3da068bd015/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Various pathophysiologic conditions may be
diagnosed or confirmed by examination of the CVP
waveform
![Page 21: CENTRAL VENOUS CATHETER](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061608/58f9b2dc760da3da068bd015/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Atrial fibrillation obliterates the a wave, increases the c wave and preserves the v wave and y descent. This arrhythmia also causes variation in the electrocardiographic (ECG) R-R interval and left ventricular stroke volume, which can be seen in the ECG and arterial (ART) pressure traces
![Page 22: CENTRAL VENOUS CATHETER](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061608/58f9b2dc760da3da068bd015/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Isorhythmic atrioventricular dissociation. In contrast to the normal end-diastolic a wave in the CVP trace (left panel), an early systolic cannon wave is inscribed (*, right panel). Reduced ventricular filling accompanying this arrhythmia causes a decreased arterial blood pressure.
![Page 23: CENTRAL VENOUS CATHETER](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061608/58f9b2dc760da3da068bd015/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
TRICUSPID REGURGITATION INCREASES CVP AND THE WAVEFORM DISPLAYS A TALL SYSTOLIC C-V WAVE THAT OBLITERATES THE X DESCENT
TRICUSPID STENOSIS ALSO INCREASES MEAN CVP, BUT THE CHARACTERISTIC VENOUS WAVEFORM IS DIFFERENT FROM THE ONE SEEN IN TRICUSPID REGURGITATION. THE DIASTOLIC Y DESCENT IS ATTENUATED AND THE END-DIASTOLIC A WAVE IS PROMINENT.
![Page 24: CENTRAL VENOUS CATHETER](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061608/58f9b2dc760da3da068bd015/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
DURING POSITIVE PRESSURE VENTILATION, ONSET OF INSPIRATION (ARROWS) CAUSES AN INCREASE IN INTRATHORACIC PRESSURE. CVP IS STILL RECORDED AT END-EXPIRATION (MEAN CVP 8 MMHG).
DURING SPONTANEOUS VENTILATION, ONSET OF INSPIRATION (ARROWS) CAUSES A REDUCTION IN INTRATHORACIC PRESSURE, WHICH IS TRANSMITTED TO BOTH THE CVP AND THE PULMONARY ARTERY PRESSURE (PAP) WAVEFORMS. CVP SHOULD BE RECORDED AT END-EXPIRATION (MEAN CVP 14 MMHG).
![Page 25: CENTRAL VENOUS CATHETER](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061608/58f9b2dc760da3da068bd015/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
WHAT IS A CENTRAL LINE
It is a catheter that provides venous access via the superior vena cava or right atrium
![Page 26: CENTRAL VENOUS CATHETER](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061608/58f9b2dc760da3da068bd015/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
What is a Central Venous Catheter?
The tip of the CVC usually rests in the Cavo-Atrial Junction (CAJ).
Femorally inserted CVCs have the tip lying in the Inferior Vena Cava approximately at the level of the diaphragm.
![Page 27: CENTRAL VENOUS CATHETER](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061608/58f9b2dc760da3da068bd015/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)

In patients with severe bleeding diatheses, it is best to choose a puncture site at which bleeding from the vein or adjacent artery is easily detected and controlled with local compression. In such a patient, an internal or external jugular approach would be preferable to a subclavian site.
Likewise, patients with severe emphysema or others who would be severely compromised by pneumothorax would be better candidates for internal jugular than subclavian cannulation because of the higher risk with the latter approach.
![Page 36: CENTRAL VENOUS CATHETER](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061608/58f9b2dc760da3da068bd015/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
If transvenous cardiac pacing is required in an emergency situation, catheterization of the right internal jugular vein is recommended because it provides the most direct route to the right ventricle.
Trauma patients with their necks immobilized in a hard cervical collar are best resuscitated via a femoral or subclavian approach; the latter may be used even more safely if the risk of pneumothorax is obviated by prior placement of a thoracostomy tube.

Confirmation of cvp catheter
After surgery, however, the position of the catheter tip must be confirmed radiographically.
Catheter tips located within the heart or below the pericardial reflection of the superior vena cava increase the risk for cardiac perforation and fatal cardiac tamponade.
Ideally, the catheter tip should lie within the superior vena cava, parallel to the vessel walls, and be positioned below the inferior border of the clavicles and abovethe level of the third rib, the T4 to T5 interspace, the azygos vein, the tracheal carina, or the takeoff of the right mainstem bronchus

The Internal Jugular Vein The internal jugular vein (IJV) is most
frequently chosen site for CVC insertion. Many approaches have been described
depending on the level of the neck at which the vein is punctured.
A high approach reduces the risk of pneumothorax but increases the risk on arterial puncture. For lower approaches the converse is true.
With experience this route has a low incidence of complications

A portacath or "port" is comprised of two components, a self-sealing injection port and a catheter that enters the vein. The port and catheter are placed entirely under the skin using a small incision.
Mediport or Portacath
![Page 73: CENTRAL VENOUS CATHETER](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061608/58f9b2dc760da3da068bd015/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
Mediport or Portacath There will be a bump
on the chest wall where the injection port is located. This is the site where the access Huber needle is placed.
Once port is deaccessed, it needs a MONTHLY flush with 5ml of heparin (100 units/ml) to keep it patent.

Evidence-Based Strategies Selected to Reduce CLA-BSIs
1. Hand hygiene2. Maximal sterile barriers3. Chlorhexidine for skin asepsis4. Avoid femoral lines5. Avoid/remove unnecessary lines
![Page 89: CENTRAL VENOUS CATHETER](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061608/58f9b2dc760da3da068bd015/html5/thumbnails/89.jpg)
Hand Hygiene Cornerstone of any
infection prevention program
Many studies have shown that improvement in hand hygiene significantly decreases a variety of infectious complications
![Page 90: CENTRAL VENOUS CATHETER](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061608/58f9b2dc760da3da068bd015/html5/thumbnails/90.jpg)
Hand Hygiene
Use of waterless alcohol-base hand rub Most effective and
efficient method for hand antisepsis against bacterial pathogens
When hands are visibly soiled, they should be washed with soap and water
![Page 91: CENTRAL VENOUS CATHETER](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022061608/58f9b2dc760da3da068bd015/html5/thumbnails/91.jpg)

Maximal Sterile Barriers
One study found a 6-fold higher rate of catheter-related septicemia when minimal sterile barriers (sterile gloves and small drape) were used instead of maximal sterile barriers
Raad II, Hohn H, Gilbreath J, et al. Prevention of central venous catheter-related infections by using maximal sterile barrier precautions during insertion. Infect Control Hosp Epidemiol. 1994;15:231–238.

Chlorhexidine for Skin Asepsis
Studies have compared chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) versus povidone iodine as a skin antiseptic for catheter insertion and routine insertion site care
Recent meta-analysis, the use of CHG rather than povidone iodine was found to reduce the risk of CLA-BSIs by approximately 50% in hospitalized patients who required short term catheterization
