YouTube: Site-Rite Instructional Video

Posted by Clark Venable on 2/25/2007

The AHRQ published Making Health Care Safer: A Critical Analysis of Patient Safety Practices in 2001. Chapter 21 deals with Ultrasound Guidance of Central Vein Catheterization. I thought I'd include a link to a YouTube video that shows how this device is used:

Although the device has advance considerably since then (see below), the images it provides are still pretty much the same.

I will often use the device to locate and mark an internal jugular vein before draping the patient as I find the use of the needle guide extremely cumbersome.
