Umblikal Venöz Katetere Bağlı Nadir Bir Komplikasyon: Perikardiyal Tamponad

Abstract

Umblikal venöz kateterizasyon yenidoğan yoğun bakım ünitelerinde özellikle preterm bebeklerde sıklıkla kullanılmaktadır. Total parenteral nutrüsyon, lokal toksik ilaçların verilmesinde daha uzun süreli ve güvenli bir yoldur. Fakat aritmi, intrakardiyak tromboz, sistemik/pulmoner emboli, endokardit, miyokardiyal perforasyon, perikardiyal ve plevral effüzyon, pulmoner hemoraji, kardiyak tamponad ve kateter ilişkili enfeksiyon gibi birçok komplikasyon gelişebilmektedir. Burada postnatal 3. günde umblikal venöz katetere bağlı perikardiyal tamponad gelişen bir olgumuzu sunduk

A Rare Complication of Umbilical Venous Catheter: Pericardial Tamponad

Abstract

Umbilical venous catheterization is frequently used in neonatal intensive care units, especially in preterm infants. It is a longer term and safer way to administer local toxic drugs and total parenteral nutrition. However, many complications such as arrhythmia, intracardiac thrombosis, systemic/pulmonary embolism, endocarditis, myocardial perforation, pericardial and pleural effusion, pulmonary hemorrhage, cardiac tamponade and catheter-associated infection may occur. Here, we report a case of pericardial tamponade, detected on the postnatal 3rd day, due to umbilical venous catheterisation
