Our technique of retrograde cannulation of internal iugular veins in head-brain injuries
Naša technika retrográdnej kanylácie v. jugulare internae pri úrazoch hlavy
Kontinuálne sledovanie SjO2 a stanovenie koncentrácie laktátu v jugulárnej krvi pre odhalenie mozgovej ischémie a jej intenzity vyžaduje retrográdne zavedenie kanyly s fibrooptikou do bulbus superior v. jugulare internae. K tomu slúžia konštantné, dobre hmatné, za sebou zoradené anatomické orientačné body. Výhoda spočíva v tom, že kanylácia je jednoduchá a ľahko uskutočniteľná vzhľadom k malej vzdialenosti pungovanej žily od povrchu kože a nemusí sa polohovať hlava a otáčať krk. To má veľký význam najmä u pacientov s kraniocerebrálnym poranením.
Klíčová slova:

Overview
Continuous monitoring of SjO2 and lactate concentration in iugular venous blood is used to screen for brain ischemia. This method deserves retrograde introduction of fiberoptic cannula to bulbus superior of internal iugular vein. Constant and well palpable points create anatomic landmarks for the introduction approach. Using this technique, introduction of the cannula can be performed easily, because the distance between puncture sites of the skin and vein is short, the head does not to be turned to one side with tilt in the neck. This is extremely important and advantageous especially in patients who suffered head-brain injury.
Key words:
SjO2 – lactate – retrograde cannulation – head-brain injury
