ABSTRACT

The use of USG has recently become more popular in anesthesia practice. The use of USG increases the success of the practice and protects the patient from possible complications. In this case, the benefits of hemodialysis catheter placement, procedural difficulties, and the use of USG are shared in a USG-accompanied patient who is expected to be difficult to administer. The use of USG increases the success of the attempted procedure and seriously reduces the complication rate especially in complicated patients. As in this case, we believe that the use of USG in such procedures will benefit many patients and practitioners and it would be beneficial to implement it routinely.
