An integrated catheter placement system for accurately placing a catheter within a patient'vasculature is disclosed. In one embodiment, the integrated system comprises a system console, a tip location sensor for temporary placement on the patient's chest, and an ultrasound probe. The tip location sensor senses a magnetic field of a stylet disposed in a lumen of the catheter when the catheter is disposed in the vasculature. The ultrasound probe ultrasonically images a portion of the vasculature prior to intravascular introduction of the catheter. The ultrasound probe includes user input controls for controlling use of the ultrasound probe in an ultrasound mode and use of the tip location sensor in a tip location mode. In another embodiment, ECG signal-based catheter tip guidance is included in the integrated system to enable guidance of the catheter tip to a desired position with respect to a node of the patient's heart.
1. A catheter placement system for inserting a catheter into a vasculature of a patient, comprising: a console;a stylet removably positionable within a lumen of the catheter, the stylet including: a magnetic assembly for producing a magnetic field;an ECG sensor assembly for detecting ECG signals of
1. A catheter placement system for inserting a catheter into a vasculature of a patient, comprising: a console;a stylet removably positionable within a lumen of the catheter, the stylet including: a magnetic assembly for producing a magnetic field;an ECG sensor assembly for detecting ECG signals of a node of a heart of the patient, including an electrically conductive core wire; anda first connector in operable communication with the core wire of the ECG sensor assembly, the first connector including a pin contact in operable communication with the core wire, the pin contact disposed in a channel defined in the first connector;a tip location sensor positionable on a chest of a patient, the tip location sensor configured to detect a magnetic field of the magnetic assembly when the catheter is disposed within the vasculature of the patient;a second connector included with the tip location sensor for operably connecting to the first connector of the stylet to enable the ECG signals detected by the ECG sensor assembly to be communicated to the tip location sensor, wherein the first and second connectors are physically connected via a perforation defined in a drape interposed between the stylet and the tip location sensor positionable on the chest of the patient, the physical connection of the first and second connectors producing the perforation in the drape and confining the perforation so as to prevent a compromise of a sterile field of the patient; anda display for displaying information relating to at least one aspect of the ECG signal detected by the ECG sensor assembly. 2. The system as defined in claim 1, wherein the console display enables a clinician to ascertain when a distal tip of the catheter is positioned at a predetermined location with respect to the node of the heart. 3. The system as defined in claim 1, wherein the core wire includes a distally tapered portion, the core wire extending to a distal end of the stylet. 4. The system as defined in claim 1 , wherein the second connector is a fin connector included with the tip location sensor, the first connector being slidably attachable to the second connector such that the pin contact of the first connector is placed in operable communication with a contact of the second connector to enable ECG signals to pass from the ECG sensor assembly to the tip location sensor. 5. The system as defined in claim 4, wherein the second connector is a fin connector that is selectively removable from the tip location sensor. 6. The system as defined in claim 5, wherein the tip location sensor includes a channel that slidably receives a barrel portion of the fin connector such that at least one electrical contact of the tip location sensor is placed in operable communication with at least one electrical contact of the fin connector. 7. The system as defined in claim 1, wherein the magnetic assembly includes a plurality of magnetic elements positioned proximate a distal end of the stylet, the stylet disposed in the lumen of the catheter such that the plurality of magnetic elements are substantially proximate a distal tip of the catheter. 8. The system as defined in claim 1, further comprising an ultrasound probe operably connected to the console for ultrasonically imaging a portion of the vasculature prior to introduction of the catheter into the vasculature for depiction on the display. 9. The system as defined in claim 8, wherein the display in a first mode depicts aspects relating to ultrasonic imaging by the ultrasound probe, wherein the display in a second mode depicts aspects relating to detection by the tip location sensor of the magnetic field of the magnetic assembly, wherein the display in a third mode depicts aspects relating to detection by the ECG sensor assembly of the ECG, and wherein a desired mode to be depicted by the display is selected without the clinician reaching out of a sterile field of the patient. 10. The system as defined in claim 9, wherein the display in the third mode displays a current ECG trace of the heart node of the patient. 11. The system as defined in claim 1, wherein the display in the second mode depicts a first icon to indicate a first proximity of the magnetic assembly to the tip location sensor and a second icon to indicate a second proximity of the magnetic assembly to the tip location sensor. 12. The system as defined in claim 1, wherein the stylet and the second connector are disposable after a single use.
