Something like a classic central line, right? A CVC, central venous catheter.
S
44:34speaker_0HOST
You certainly can use this.
S
44:36speaker_0HOST
It actually can't transfuse quite as fast as an 18 or 16 gauge IV, or certainly any of these bigger sheaths, just because flow through these things is gonna be based on diameter of the catheter, as well as length.
S
44:50speaker_0HOST
And if you're familiar with these, a CVC, a kind of classic central line, is long, so the flow through it is actually slower than a shorter thing like an 18 gauge peripheral IV.
S

So just something to note.
S

You can use it, it just won't, you won't be able to transfuse as fast.

You've got an airway that you're then potentially not, is in- is inaccessible.
P
33:06Prashant KumarGUEST
You've got equipment from our side which is pretty heavy in terms of the machine, in terms of ventilation, in terms of, um, probably multiple pumps, you know, art lines, uh, potential CVC lines.
P
33:16Prashant KumarGUEST
So, so we've got more involvement in terms of equipment that's on the patient, temperature monitoring catheters, you know, than maybe a, you know, in a o- a one-hour other max fax case has.

On top of that, the surgeons have extra stuff because they're looking at microscopes.
