Term infants with levels of 20 mg/dL or higher have an increased risk of kernicterus. Blood for exchange transfusion should be as fresh as possible. Heparin or citrate-phosphate-dextrose- adenine solution may be used as an anticoagulant. Blood should be gradually warmed and maintained at a temperature between 35 and 37C throughout the exchange transfusion.
EXCHANGE TRANSFUSION
The infant's stomach should be emptied before transfusion to prevent aspiration An assistant should be present to help monitor, tally the volume of blood exchanged, and perform emergency procedures.
EXCHANGE TRANSFUSION PROCEDURE 1. With strict aseptic technique, the umbilical vein is cannulated with a polyvinyl catheter to a distance no greater than 7 cm in a full-term infant. 2. When free flow of blood is obtained, the catheter is usually in a large hepatic vein or the inferior vena cava. Alternatively, the exchange may be performed through peripheral arterial (drawn out) and venous (infused in) lines
EXCHANGE TRANSFUSION PROCEDURE 3. The exchange should be carried out over a 4560 min period, with aspiration of 20 mL of infant blood alternating with infusion of 20 mL of donor blood. *Smaller aliquots (510 mL) may be indicated for sick and premature infants. * The goal should be an isovolumetric exchange of approximately two blood volumes of the infant (2 85 mL/kg). EXCHANGE TRANSFUSION COMPLICATIONS Acute complications (510% of infants) Transient bradycardia with or without calcium infusion Cyanosis Transient vasospasm Thrombosis Apnea with bradycardia requiring resuscitation, and death. Infectious risks include CMV, HIV, and hepatitis. Necrotizing enterocolitis (rare complication of exchange transfusion). After exchange transfusion, the bilirubin level must be determined at frequent intervals (every 4 8 hr) because bilirubin may rebound 4050% within hours.
Vascular Procedures Anatomy Digital Vessels -Along lateral aspects fingers, infiltrate easily, painful, difficult to immobilize and should be your LAST RESORT Metacarpal Vessels -Located between joints and metacarpal bones (act as natural splint) -Formed by union of digital veins
Digital Veins of the Upper Extremities Cephalic (Interns Vein) -Starts at radial aspect of wrist -Access anywhere along entire length (BEWARE of radial artery/nerve)
Medial Cephalic (On ramp to Cephalic Vein) -Joins the Cephalic below the elbow bend -Accepts larger gauge catheters, but may be a difficult angle to hit and maintain
Veins of the Upper Extremities Basilic - Originates from the ulner side of the metacarpal veins and runs along the medial aspect of the arm. It is often overlooked becauses of its location on the back of the arm, but flexing the elbow/bending the arm brings this vein into view
Medial Basilic - Empties into the Basilic vein running parallel to tendons, so it is not always well defined. Accepts larger gauge catheters. - BEWARE of Brachial Artery/Nerve
Purposes of Vascular Access
To provide parenteral nutrition To provide avenue for dialysis/apheresis To transfuse blood products To provide avenue for hemodynamic monitoring To provide avenue for diagnostic testing To administer fluids and medications with the ability to rapidly/accurately change blood concentration levels by either continuous, intermittent or IV push method.
Types of Peripheral Venous Access Devices Butterfly (winged) or Scalp vein needles (SVN) not recommended for non compliant patient as it can easily penetrate the vein wall causing extravasation. We use these frequently for phlebotomy Safety Over the needle catheters (ONC) Vascular Procedures EQUIPMENT AND MATERIALS Vascular Devices - 2 types of cannulae: 1) Metal cannulae (Butterflies) - indicated for very short term use (1-2 days) or for blood sampling - can easily dislodged or cause inadvertent punctures. - common size: G23 or G25. For blood extraction: G21
2)Plastic cannulae are more easily kept in place and may last for several days if properly maintained. (size G24 or smaller for neonates)
OTHER MATERIALS Antiseptic swabs, inch skin tape and a torniquet Use of gloves is encouraged. The fluid and delivery system should be prepared beforehand. Local anesthetic, syringes or vacuum tube and splints may be prepared. Starting a Peripheral IV TECHNIQUE
1) Anatomic considerations Iff an IV line is to be established, the most distal available vein should be utilized (eg dorsum of the hand before arm)
AVOID SITES: - Angulated - Dependent - Mobile - Contaminated
Starting a Peripheral IV PROCEDURE
1. Clean the area with antiseptic swab 2. If a limb is to be used, apply a torniquet about 3-5 cms above the place where the needle will be inserted 3. * Placing the area in a dependent position and local heat application will help distend the vein
4. Topical or local anesthetic may be used especially if a large bore needle will be inserted 5. The needle bevel up is inserted into the skin and is directed at an acute angle towards the surface or the side of the vein
Starting a Peripheral IV PROCEDURE
6. A give may be felt or the butterfly tubing or cannula chamber may fill by blood indicating puncture of the vein 7. The tornique is removed and the previously filled intravenous tubing is attached to the needle or cannula 8. The needle or cannula is then taped and secured to the skin. 9. Proper application of fixed splints
COMPLICATIONS AND PRECAUTIONS
Hematoma formation Extravascular infiltration Local infection or phlebitis
Infiltration/Extravasation The most common cause is damage to the wall during insertion or angle of placement. Phlebitis/Thrombophlebitis Chemical - Infusate chemically erodes internal layers. Warm compresses may help while the infusate is stopped/changed. Anti-inflammatory and analgesic medications are often used no matter what the cause Mechanical - Caused by irritation to internal lumen of vein during insertion of vascular access device and usually appears shortly after insertion. The device may need to be removed and warm compresses applied Bacterial - Caused by introduction of bacteria into the vein. Remove the device immediately and treat w/antibiotics. The arm will be painful, red and warm; edema may accompany Cellulitis Inflammation of loose connective tissue around insertion site - Red swollen area spreads from insertion site outwardly in a diffuse circular pattern - Treated w/antibiotics Umbilical Vessel Cannulation The umbilical vessels are accessible generally up to only 10-14 days of life
INDICATIONS: For umbilical artery cannulation: Frequent ABG determination in extremely low birth weight infants, preterms, PPHN, Asphyxia Continuous IV BP monitoring Additional Vascular access ANATOMY
Umbilical Vessel Cannulation INDICATIONS:
For umbilical venous cannulation: Emergency volume expansion or transfusion of blood products Exchange transfusion Central venous access for reliable infusion of fluids with high dextrose loads, medications CVP monitoring Umbilical Vessel Cannulation EQUIPMENT AND MATERIALS Povidone iodine antiseptic solution Sterile NSS Sterile umbilical cannulation set Sterile gloves Cord tie Scalpel handle and blade Iris scissor Hemostats Needle holder Sutures (3.0 or 4.0 silk) Umbilical catheter (single/double/triple lumen or feding tubes (5.0 or 8 Fr) Syringes 3-way stop cock 2x2 gauze pads
Umbilical Vessel Cannulation PROCEDURE 1) Immobilize the neonate in supine position (arms and legs are properly restrained) 2) Provide thermoregulation 3) Measure distance from the acromioclavicular (AC) joint to a line extending laterally from the umbilicus 4) Don a cap and mask, Perform 3-5 mins surgical scrub. Put on sterile gown and gloves. 5) Open the cannulation set, check contents, flush catheters w/ NSS, attach to stopcocks, affix needle/suture to needle holder and check all other equipment Umbilical Vessel Cannulation PROCEDURE 6) Grasp the cord with mild traction. Paint the cord and its base w/ povidone and iodine solution and allow to dry. 7) Apply cord tie to the umbilical base. Cut the cord about 1-1.5 cm from the base 8) Identify the umbilical vessels (2 arteries: 1 vein) Arteries have thick muscular walls, vein is thin- walled and bleeds more easily after cutting)
Umbilical Artery Cannulation DIRECT TECHNIQUE - Grasp the side of the cord with a hemostat. - Dilate one of the arteries, initially with iris forceps - The tip of the catheter is then introduced into the lumen and advance with a gentle and even pressure
Umbilical Artery Cannulation SIDE TECHNIQUE - Visualize the approximate course of one of the arteries along the side of the cord - Cut partially through the cord until you transect one third to halfway through the artery. - Dilate and cannulate

Umbilical Artery Cannulation
A low lying arterial catheter is generally advanced about two-thirds the distance from the acromioclavicular joint to the umbilical level previously measured. Umbilical Vein Cannulation Does not require dilatation The flushed catheter is slowly advanced, initially to a level 1-2 cm beyond the planned distance. The catheter is slowly withdrawn until a steady backflow of blood is encountered.

BLOOD EXTRACTION CAPILLARY BLOOD SAMPLING INDICATIONS 1) Routine laboratory blood tests including serial glucose determination 2) Capillary blood gas sampling 3) Difficulty obtaining blood from a vein (preterm infants) BLOOD EXTRACTION CAPILLARY BLOOD SAMPLING CONTRAINDICATIONS 1) Infection at the site 2) Decreased blood flow to the area (extremities with poor perfusion) in cases of shock 3) Edema of the extremity 4) Polycythemia 5) Bleeding disorders with prolonged bleeding time
BLOOD EXTRACTION CAPILLARY BLOOD SAMPLING CONTRAINDICATIONS 1) Infection at the site 2) Decreased blood flow to the area (extremities with poor perfusion) in cases of shock 3) Edema of the extremity 4) Polycythemia 5) Bleeding disorders with prolonged bleeding time
BLOOD EXTRACTION CAPILLARY BLOOD SAMPLING SITE Medial plantar surface of the heel (lateral area is also acceptable) EQUIPMENT 1) Sterile gloves 2) 70& alcohol swab or cotton with alcohol 3) Gauze square Lancet 4) Capillary tubes with sealer caps/wax 5) Microtainers/collecting tubes
BLOOD EXTRACTION CAPILLARY BLOOD SAMPLING TECHNIQUE 1) Warm the heel using a small wet towel or disposable diaper soaked in warm water. Wring out excess water. This will increase blood flow to the area 2) Clean the area using alcohol swabs. Allow it to dry 3) Position the heel. Grasp gently using your thumb & second or third finger to assume a dorsiflexed position so that it will be possible to milk the heel.
BLOOD EXTRACTION CAPILLARY BLOOD SAMPLING TECHNIQUE 4) Use a lancet to pierce the skin using one continuous stroke. Do not go deeper than 2.5mm. If less amount of blood is needed, make a shallower incision. 5) Once the 1 st drop of blood is obtained, wipe this off using a dry gauze
BLOOD EXTRACTION CAPILLARY BLOOD SAMPLING TECHNIQUE 6) Slightly relaxed the grip on the heel to allow blood to accumulate. Gently squeeze or milk the heel again. This step may be repeated 7) Position the collecting tube (microtainer or the capillary tube so that it touches the drop of blood)
BLOOD EXTRACTION CAPILLARY BLOOD SAMPLING TECHNIQUE 8) Place the cap onto the containers or seal the capillary tubes using wax 3-5mm
9) Apply pressure on the puncture site for at least 2 minutes until no bleeding at the site occurs.
BLOOD EXTRACTION COMPLICATIONS 1) Maceration of the site from excessive squeeze or from numerous pricks. 2) Subcutaneous nodules at puncture sites. 3) Osseus spurs from hitting to the talus. 4) Ankle dislocation or even foot fracture from overzealous milking of the heel
BLOOD EXTRACTION ARTERIAL BLOOD SAMPLING INDICATIONS 1) Determination of arterial blood gas 2) Blood sampling when capillary and venous sites are found inaccessible 3) Specific blood tests (e.g. ammonia levels)
BLOOD EXTRACTION ARTERIAL BLOOD SAMPLING CONTRAINDICATIONS 1) Compromised blood supply to the extremity site 2) Infection in the affected site 3) Site will be used for central or percutaneous line insertion 4) Clotting disorders
BLOOD EXTRACTION ARTERIAL BLOOD SAMPLING TECHNIQUE 1) Select and prepare the site. One that has barely been tapped is ideal. Transillumination of the vessel may aid if pulsation from the artery is not palpated. Apply antiseptic solution thrice and allow it to dry
BLOOD EXTRACTION ARTERIAL BLOOD SAMPLING TECHNIQUE 2) Position the limb. If the radial artery is chosen, extend the wrist. Do nit hyperextend. If the dorsalis pedis artery is selected, slightly extend the foot. If the temporal artery is used, choose the area anterior to the tragus of the ear.
BLOOD EXTRACTION ARTERIAL BLOOD SAMPLING TECHNIQUE 3) Locate where to puncture and position the needle at 15-25 degree angle for the horizontal plane of the skin. At wrist, choose an area proximal to the wrist crease
BLOOD EXTRACTION ARTERIAL BLOOD SAMPLING TECHNIQUE 4) Insert the needle to penetrate the skin, bevel down for small premature infants.Advance the needle very slowly to allow the blood to flow into the needle. Avoid advancing and pulling the needle blindly using several strokes as this can injure nerves and other tissues. 5) Apply gentle suction by applying traction on the syringe plunger while simultaneously advancing the needle until resistance is not felt & blood from the vessel lumen is drawn
BLOOD EXTRACTION ARTERIAL BLOOD SAMPLING TECHNIQUE 6) Secure the angiocatheter with Tegaderm and tape just as with any intravenous line. 7) Send blood specimen immediately for blood gas analysis or ammonia level
BLOOD EXTRACTION ARTERIAL BLOOD SAMPLING COMPLICATIONS 1) Hematoma 2) Arterial embolism, thrombosis and fibrosis of a vessel 3) Infection (eg abscess formation, septic emboli, and osteomyelitis) 4) Fibrosis of artery
BLOOD EXTRACTION ARTERIAL BLOOD SAMPLING COMPLICATIONS 5) Keloid and hypertrophic scar formation 6) Arterial spasm 7) Extensor tendon sheath injury resulting in false cortical thumb 8) Nerve injury of the median, posterior tibial or femoral nerves
