... operator must have an idea of the probe orientation, the image on the display, the physics of ultrasound, the mechanism of image generation, and the artifacts, and be able to interpret 2D images of the vessel lumen and surrounding structures. A two- dimensional image of a blood vessel is usually displayed either along the long axis (Figure 4), the short axis ( Figure 5) or the oblique short axis (Figure 6). ...

Background
Venous Access Devices (VADs) are the most used devices in COVID-19 patients.
Objective
Identify VADs implanted, catheter related thrombosis (CRT), catheter-related bloodstream infection (CRBSI), and accidental remove of VADs in both COVID-19 positive and COVID-19 free patients. Successive analysis was conducted comparing COVID-19 positi...
Central venous catheters are ubiquitous in current medical practice in intensive care units and for long-term nutrition, chemotherapy, and antibiotic therapies. Umbilical venous catheters provide short-term central vascular access and are used in the neonatal period. This case presents sonographic and CT imaging findings of an intrahepatic and intr...
Background: Like elsewhere, there is an ongoing paradigm shift of route of vascular access for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) from trans-femoral to trans-radial in Bangladesh. However, the efficacy, safety and cost effectiveness of TRI in Bangladesh have not been studied adequately. The present study was carried out to find the safety and...
Introduction: Hemodialysis patients should receive hemodialysis three times per week and 140- 160 times annually. The financial and temporal costs of continuing travel to hemodialysis centers affect the type of vascular access, treatment coherence, geographical distribution and mortality of patients. Objectives: In this study, the spatial distribut...

Post-procedural wound haemorrhage is a potentially life-threatening complication. For haemodialysis patients, bleeding is often encountered after vascular access procedures and fatal episodes have been reported. Visual monitoring for bleeding is manpower intensive and bleeding episodes may still be m...

... Conventional central venous access has several disadvantages, including interrup- Point-of-care ultrasound in critical care and emergency medicine tion of cardiopulmonary resuscitation, technical difficulty, and several complications [78]. Ultrasound-guided central venous access can greatly increase stability, accuracy, and efficiency [79][80][81]. Ultrasound-guided supraclavicular subclavian access using an endocavitary probe improves vein identification, anatomical understanding, and procedural comfort following a brief training session [82]. POCUS can help determine cardiac tamponade, left ventricle failure, pulmonary embolism, hypovolemia, and tension pneumothorax [83,84] [85][86][87][88][89]. POCUS is best performed in the subxiphoid or apical window to avoid interfering with chest compressions. ...
Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) is a rapidly developing technology that has the potential to revolutionize emergency and critical care medicine. The use of POCUS can improve patient care by providing real-time clinical information. However, appropriate usage and proper training are crucial to ensure patient safety and reliability. This article discusses the various applications of POCUS in emergency and critical care medicine, the importance of training and education, and the future of POCUS in medicine.
