Umbilical Vein Catheterization:
 - only if sick, sick sick.
 - may work up to 2 weeks
 - Betadine
 - #11 blade to trip
 - 1/4" iodoform gauze to tie
 - Iris forceps or other dilator
 For elective umbilical catheterization: 
   - go from umbilical vein to just above diaphragm to where IVC crosses diaphragm
   - hard to get through liver
   - multiple xrays and tries to get past liver
 - for emergency lines, don't try to get past the liver, or even into liver
 - just advance 2 cm, check for blood return, advance 1 cm, check for blood return
 - giving drugs into liver is really, really bad
 - 2 small arteries, one small vein
