Excerpt

In the intensive care unit (ICU), intravascular access is mandatory for monitoring and prompt resuscitation. However, mechanical complications at insertion, and infections or thrombosis during catheter use remain frequent, with an incidence of more than 60 episodes for 1000 catheter-days [1]. Therefore, catheter use should be guided by necessity, always preferring the device with the lowest complication rate or the less invasive one. …
