Rapid Response and Life-Saving Vascular Access

Today’s Vascular Wellness Voice demonstrates how having a vascular access team with a rapid response provides life-saving vascular access. This Wellness Wednesday case is about a teen patient who suffered life-threatening bilateral arm amputation in an accident was admitted to the trauma unit with massive blood loss. The trauma physicians made several unsuccessful attempts to place a central line and quickly switched to a femoral approach. They obtained access, but the line was positional, making it less reliable. Knowing reliable vascular access was critical for this patient, especially because they needed to urgently transport him via helicopter to another facility, the charge nurse asked a nearby Vascular Wellness nurse clinician to come to the trauma room and help them achieve vascular access.
