Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 6-Oct-2015
Neonatal parenteral nutrition may be delivered via peripheral cannulas or central venous catheters (umbilical or percutaneous). As the result of complications associated with umbilical catheters, many neonatal units prefer to use percutaneous catheters af - Percutaneous cholecystostomy for high‐risk surgical patients with acute calculous cholecystitis
Cochrane Systematic Reviews, 12-Aug-2013
The management of people at high risk of perioperative death due to their general condition (high-risk surgical patients) with acute calculous cholecystitis is controversial, with no clear guidelines.
