Sonography for Complete Evaluation of Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Central Support Devices: A Pilot Study
Conclusions—
The effectiveness of sonography was excellent for evaluation of umbilical arterial and venous catheters, endotracheal tubes, and peripherally inserted central venous catheters. These results support the goal of further point-of-care training and accreditation to use sonography as a primary modality for complete evaluation of NICU support devices.
