"Ultrasound guidance is currently considered to be the safest means of positioning a pleural catheter and draining a pleural effusion. This technique requires the development of skill in the use of ultrasonography and in catheter placement. Careful screening of patients for whom the procedure is appropriate, the presence of an experienced operator, and access to a detailed clinical protocol can minimize complications."

"It is easy to learn how to use ultrasound guidance when performing radial arterial catheterization in either the transverse or the longitudinal orientation. Clinicians who regularly insert arterial catheters should master this technique because it can increase the success rate and reduce the number of attempts required for successful catheterization as compared with the palpation technique."

"An ideal "how-to" guide for those who perform musculoskeletal injections, this unique multimedia resource by Drs. Gina M. Allen and David John Wilson demonstrates how to make the most out of the clear visualization provided by ultrasound-guided techniques. High-quality line drawings, clinical photographs, and ultrasound images clearly depict patient presentation, relevant anatomy, and sonoanatomy, and each technique is accompanied by a video showing exactly how to perform the procedure"--Publisher's description.

This procedure video demonstrates how to use ultrasound guidance for the placement of peripheral intravenous (IV) catheters.
