Overview

Observational study investigates complications of sheath insertion during non-fluoroscopic resuscitation, revealing significant placement issues.

Key Points

  • To investigate complications of femoral artery sheath insertion in emergency settings without fluoroscopy.
  • Retrospective, single-center observational study
  • Included patients undergoing femoral artery sheath insertion for resuscitation from April 2014 to August 2024
  • Measured vascular and skin insertion positions using computed tomography
  • 151 patients in the non-complication group and 16 in the complication group, 9.6% complication rate
  • Significant difference in sheath insertion position (p < 0.001)
  • Higher proportion of sheath insertions at the femoral head level in the non-complication group, while insertions below were more frequent in the complication group
