RESUMO

This study was undertaken to determine the safety and feasibility of inferior vena cava (IVC) filter insertion at the bedside using duplex imaging in multi-trauma and/or critically ill patients. From February 1996 to August 1997, 53 multi-trauma and/or critically ill patients, who were in the intensive care unit and referred for an IVC filter, were prospectively evaluated for possible duplex directed caval filter (DDCF) insertion. Screening IVC duplex scans were performed in all patients. Satisfactory ultrasound visualization in 46 patients (87%) allowed attempted DDCF insertion. All procedures were percutaneously performed at the bedside using Vena Tech IVC filters. The results from this series showed that DDCF insertion can be safely and rapidly performed at the bedside in multi-trauma or critically ill patients. The procedure is dependent on satisfactory visualization of the IVC by duplex ultrasonography, which was possible in 45 out of 53 (85%) patients. Insertion at the bedside substantially reduces the procedural cost and avoids the need for transport, radiation exposure, and intravenous contrast.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: During the past 14 months we conducted a prospective clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of duplex-directed manual occlusion (DDMO) of iatrogenic femoral false aneurysms (FFAs) as an alternative to standard operative management. METHODS: In all cases DDMO was performed with real-time color-flow imaging while steady, continuous external pressure was applied manually to the neck of the FFA by an experienced vascular technologist for a period of 10 minutes. RESULTS: Ten of the 11 FFAs treated with DDMO in this series were thrombosed successfully, requiring a mean of 30 minutes of compression per aneurysm (three compressions of 10 minutes each). DDMO was unsuccessful in one patient, whose session was terminated because of severe discomfort as a result of the procedure. All 10 patients with successfully thrombosed FFAs are without recurrence at 1-month follow-up color-flow duplex examination, and there has been no morbidity attributable to DDMO. CONCLUSIONS: We conclude that DDMO of postcatheterization FFA can be performed safely and is an inexpensive, effective, nonoperative method of managing such lesions. The precise role of this technique would appear to be as a first-line treatment for uncomplicated iatrogenic FFAs.
