Diameter and depth of femoral vessels by duplex ultrasound

CONCLUSIONS: This study establishes mean diameters and depths for the common femoral artery and vein using a large, diverse patient group. BSA was most closely associated with vessel diameter, while weight was correlated with depth. This study provides normative diameter and depth values for the common femoral vasculature, which may assist in vascular access planning for providers.PMID:38087816 | DOI:10.1177/11297298231200036
