Jason PY - 2021 T2 - The Atlas of Emergency Medicine, 5e AB - Vascular access is a necessity for evaluation and treatment of many patients in the ED. Traditionally, knowledge of common venous anatomy in experienced hands was the standard method of obtaining venous access. Factors such as obesity, prior access, and volume depletion can increase the difficulty of the conventional approach.
