  • Title: Umbilical vessel catheterization.
    Author: Prinz SC, Cunningham MD.
    Journal: J Fam Pract; 1980 May; 10(5):885-90. PubMed ID: 7391767.
    Abstract:
    Umbilical vessel catheterization has become a commonly performed procedure in intensive care nurseries across the country. Catheterizing umbilical vessels can be a lifesaving step when newborn infant resuscitation is required. Moreover, considerable diagnostic and therapeutic advantages can be achieved for certain sick infants in observation or special care nurseries. The procedure requires careful patient selection and proper technical performance.
