An Ultrasound-Guided Vascular Access Procedure in an Anesthetized Pig

The video demonstrates a procedure for obtaining vascular access in an anesthetized pig using ultrasound guidance. After disinfecting the site and administering local anesthesia, an ultrasound probe is used to visualize the blood vessels. Under ultrasound guidance, a needle is inserted into the arterial lumen, a guidewire establishes a track, and a sheath is inserted and flushed with anticoagulant. Finally, a pressure line is connected, and the sheath is secured with sutures to ensure stable vascular access.
