Overview
Primary Prevention
During Venous catheter placement:[1]
- Place patient in Trendelenburg position
- this increases the CVP
- Adequate hydration [2]
- Avoid placement during inspiration
- Flush catheter lumens
During Venous catheter removal:[3] [4]
- Place patient in Trendelenburg position
- Remove Catheter during valsalva or expiration
- Cover site and apply pressure for 5-10 minutes
- Patient should remain supine for 30 minutes post procedure
During other Invasive procedures:[5]
- Use of a flush in a closed system
- Prime tubing with saline
- No air should be present in syringes
- Intra operative use of precordial doppler
- Avoid use of Nitrous oxide during abdominal procedures
- "park bench position" should be used for surgeries performed in the sitting position[6]
- Use of Reverse Trendelenburg position during Cesarian section[7]
During deep sea diving monitoring gas levels and rate of ascent can help prevent DCS.
