Özet

Introduction: In this study, for one year it was analyzed that our central venous catheter interventions in emergency department retrospectively. Materials and Methods: In this study, in 2006 for twenty months we interventioned 195 patients inserted central venous catheter in emergency department retrospectively. Results: Internal jugular vein was frequently used for central venous catheterization (% 78.9). In the unit of patients indication of catheterization was fluid replacement and measurement of central venous pressure (55.3 %). The most freuquent rension of urgent admission was traffic accident in surgical emergency cases (17,4 %), and cerebrovascular disease in internal emergency cases (10.7 %). The complication developed in internal jugular vein catheterization (14,9 %), subclavian vein catheterization (25 %), and femoral vein catheterization (28.5 %), respectively. The most frequent complications were arterial catheterization in internal juguler road (7.7 %), femoral infections in femoral vein (14.2 %), and catheter disfunctions in subclavian vein (20 %). Conclusion: Central venous catheter intervention is crucial especially in emergency department. Internal jugular vein is prefential road owing to less complication.
