Establishing venous access can be technically difficult in paediatric patients. Alternatives to intravenous access like central venous cannulation or venous cutdown carry a higher risk of complications. We report a case of successful intravenous access in an infant with anticipated difficulty, by performing transillumination of palm using a torch light.Journal of Society of Anesthesiologists of Nepal 2015; 2(1): 31-33

Various medical specialty organizations and the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) have advocated using ultrasonography to guide central venous cannulation. It is surprising then, that very few instructional models have been described to teach this technique. Consequently, we developed a model to teach ultrasound-guided central venous access. This paper presents a recipe for an ultrasonographic model or “phantom” that is easily made, inexpensive and simulates vessel cannulation extremely well.
