Ultrasound Guidance Versus Anatomical Landmarks for CVC Catheterisation:

Completed
Conditions
Success Rate for Subclavian or Femoral Vein Catetherisation
Interventions
Procedure: Central vein catheterisation
Registration Number
NCT03207932
Lead Sponsor
University of Pisa
Brief Summary

anatomical landmarks on the body surface were used to insert central vein catheter. However, ultrasound technique is emerging as a new technique for vein catheterisation. For subclavian and femoral vein catheterisation, up to now, there is a lack of evidence of the superiority of one technique over the other.
