Abstract

Study Objective: Historically, many bones have been successfully used for intraosseous (IO) vascular access, including the proximal tibia, sternum, distal tibia, radius, clavicle, proximal humerus, olecranon, calcaneous, iliac crest; as well as the distal femur. Though approved by the European Union, no IO device has been approved by the US FDA for use in the distal femur location. Since that location is a preferred site for IO vascular access among many pediatric emergency physicians and other health care professionals, we sought to determine the relative effectiveness of the site for delivery of fluids and medications. Methods: Using PubMed, a literature review was conducted using keywords "intraosseous," "IO access," and "femur." We also consulted with the Science & Clinical department of one IO device company (Vidacare Corporation, Shavano Park, TX) to gain additional data and perspectives on IO access through the distal femur apart from those published in the clinical literature. The company shared results of 2 company-sponsored, institutional review board-approved, clinical trials, and a post-mortem study to determine if the EZ-IO could consistently and safely be inserted into the pediatric distal femur for IO infusion by physicians, nurses, and paramedics. Results: PubMed listed 661 articles describing IO vascular access. Among those, 21 articles describe the distal femur as an acceptable site for IO vascular access, particularly in the pediatric population. In a 2008 retrospective study of 95 pediatric patients, 13 patients were provided IO vascular access through the distal femur. Patient ages ranged from Conclusion: Clinical literature, clinical studies, and a post-mortem study confirm that the distal femur is a viable option for IO infusion in pediatric patients.
