Amaç: Bu çalışmada çocuk yoğun bakım ünitelerinde ultrasonografi eşliğinde yapılmış olan santral venöz kateter uygulamalarının değerlendirilmesi ve ultrason kullanılmadan takılan kateterizasyonlarla karşılaştırılması amaçlanmıştı.
Gereç ve Yöntemler: Hastalar, kullanılan tekniğe göre iki gruba ayrıldı: Ultrason kullanılmayan hasta grubu (459 hasta) ve US kullanılan hasta grubu (200 hasta). Başarı oranını, girişim sayısını ve komplikasyon oranlarını her hastanın yaşına ve kilosuna göre değerlendirdik.
Bulgular: SVK’nın başarılı bir şekilde yerleştirilmesi için gereken süre iki grup arasında önemli ölçüde farklıydı: Ultrason kullanılmayan grupta 10.9±10.8 dakika ve ultrason kılavuzluğundaki grupta 8.1±7.6 dakika (p=0.012). Ek olarak, başarılı kateterizasyon için ortalama girişim sayısı, ultrason kılavuzluğundaki grupta 1.8±0.8’di; ultrason kullanılmayan grupta 2.5±1.4 (p=0.024). Toplam 115 (%17.3) komplikasyon kaydedildi: Ultrason kullanılan grupta 24 (%3.6) ve ultrason kullanılmayan grupta 91 (%13.7) (p=0.014). Hastaların yaşı ve kilosu arttıkça komplikasyon sıklığı azaldığı saptandı. Ultrason kullanılarak takılan kateterler değerlendirildiğinde %59.5’inin ultrason eğitimi almış klinisyenler tarafından, %40.5’inin ultrason eğitimi almamış klinisyenler tarafından yerleştirildiği görüldü. Ultrason eğitimi almış ve almamış klinisyenler arasında komplikasyon oranı, girişim sayısı ve başarı oranları açısından anlamlı fark yoktu (p=0.476).
Sonuç: Çalışmamız çocuklarda ultrason eşliğinde ve ultrason kullanılmadan SVK yerleştirmesini karşılaştıran en büyük çok merkezli çalışmadır. Ultrason eşliğinde takılan SVK işleminin daha güvenli ve daha az zaman aldığına inanıyoruz. Ayrıca, yatakbaşı ultrason pediatrik yoğun bakım uzmanları için yararlı ve kolayca elde edilebilir bir yöntemdir.
Objective: The aims of this study were to compare the results of ultrasound (US) guidance and the landmark (LM) technique for central venous catheter (CVC) placement in pediatric intensive care units (PICUs) as performed by clinicians.
Material and Methods: The patients were divided into two groups according to the technique used: an LM group (459 patients) and a US-guided group (200 patients). We evaluated the success rate, the number of attempts, and the complication rates based on each patient’s age and weight.
Results: The time required for the successful placement of the CVC was significantly different between the two groups: 10.9±10.8 min in the LM group and 8.1±7.6 min in the US-guided group (p=0.012). Additionally, the average number of attempts for successful catheterization was 1.8±0.8 in the US-guided group; and 2.5 ± 1.4 in the LM group (p=0.024). A total of 115 (17.3%) complications were noted: 24 (3.6%) in the US-guided group and 91 (13.7%) in the LM group (p=0.014). The frequency of complications decreased as the age and weight of the patients increased. When the inserted catheters used by ultrasound were evaluated, 59.5% of them were placed by clinicians who had ultrasound training while 40.5% were inserted by clinicians who did not have ultrasound training. There was no significant difference in the complication rate, number of punctures, and success rates between the ultrasound-trained and untrained clinicians (p=0.476).
Conclusion: This is the largest multicenter study comparing the US-guided vs. LM technique for CVC placement in children. We believe that the US-guided CVC procedure is more safe and takes less time than the LM technique. Also, point-of-care ultrasound is useful, beneficial, and easily available for pediatric intensivists.

The publication language of Turkish Journal of Pediatric Disease is English.
Manuscripts submitted to the Turkish Journal of Pediatric Disease will go through a double-blind peer-review process. Each submission will be reviewed by at least two external, independent peer reviewers who are experts in the field, in order to ensure an unbiased evaluation process. The editorial board will invite an external and independent editor to manage the evaluation processes of manuscripts submitted by editors or by the editorial board members of the journal. The Editor in Chief is the final authority in the decision-making process for all submissions. Articles accepted for publication in the Turkish Journal of Pediatrics are put in the order of publication, with at least 6 original articles in each issue, taking into account the acceptance dates. If the articles sent to the reviewers for evaluation are assessed as a senior for publication by the reviewers, the section editor and the editor considering all aspects (originality, high scientific quality and citation potential), it receives publication priority in addition to the articles assigned for the next issue.
The aim of the Turkish Journal of Pediatrics is to publish high-quality original research articles that will contribute to the international literature in the field of general pediatric health and diseases and its sub-branches. It also publishes editorial opinions, letters to the editor, reviews, case reports, book reviews, comments on previously published articles, meeting and conference proceedings, announcements, and biography. In addition to the field of child health and diseases, the journal also includes articles prepared in fields such as surgery, dentistry, public health, nutrition and dietetics, social services, human genetics, basic sciences, psychology, psychiatry, educational sciences, sociology and nursing, provided that they are related to this field. can be published.
