Safety and Efficacy for Central Venous AccessThe Site~Rite* 6 Ultrasound System conforms to the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) recommendations for the use of real time ultrasound for central line placement1. Increased Success Rates2– Real time ultrasound guidance increases the success rates of internal jugular and subclavian access
Decreased Complications2– Reduced incidences of carotid puncture, hematoma and brachial plexus irritation
Reduced Venipunctures3 – Reduction in the number of venipuncture kits used to achieve access |
