probadanje oba zida arterije Explanation: Axillary artery: In some instances, the axillary may be the preferred artery. An example is deep hypothermic arrest. A through and through technique is best. After a generous skin wheal of local anesthetic, use the left hand to immoblize the artery and place an IV thru both walls of the artery. Remove the needle and withdraw the catherter till blood spurts out. Then pass a guide wire. If a small (.021 in) wire is used, it is possible for the catheter to fold at its junction with the artery. The catheter may appear to thread but will not go interarterial. To test for this possibility, pull back on the guide wire after the catherter is in a small way. If folding has occured, the wire will be very difficult to remove. Also be sure about the compatibility of the guide wire and the catheter. After the catheter is in place, any flushing of the catheter must be done very carefully. It is possible to flush clots and air in a retrograde fashion into the cerebral circulation and cause a CVA.
