Procedure: Supra- vs Infraclavicular approach using ultrasonography
Registration Number
NCT03677765
Lead Sponsor
Seoul National University Hospital
Brief Summary

For performing subclavian venous catheterization, two approaches (supraclavicular and infraclavicular) have been used successfully in various clinical practice. However, there remains controversy concerning which approach is safer and causes less complications during ultrasonography-guided subclavian venous catheterization. In this context, the investigators sought to compare supraclavicular approach with infraclavicular approach in terms of post-procedural complications during ultrasonography-guided subclavian venous catheterization.

GroupInterventionDescription
Infraclavicular groupSupra- vs Infraclavicular approach using ultrasonographyIn the infraclavicular group, subclavian venous catheterization using ultrasonography is performed beneath the clavicle.
Supraclavicular groupSupra- vs Infraclavicular approach using ultrasonographyIn the supraclavicular group, subclavian venous catheterization using ultrasonography is performed over the clavicle.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
the overall incidence of complicationsintraoperatively to 1 hour after the admission of ICU

The overall incidence of complications will be expressed as the sum of incidences of complications which occurred during subclavian venous catheterization including arterial puncture, hematoma formation, pneumothorax, hemothorax, and malposition of catheter. Arterial puncture, hematoma formation, and malposition of catheter will be evaluated with ultrasonography, and pneumothorax and hemothorax will be evaluated by chest radiography.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
the number of needling for venipunctureintraoperatively

The number of needling for venipuncture was defined as the amount of needling for successful subclavian venous puncture.

the first-pass success rateintraoperatively

The first-pass success was defined as successful catheterization on a single attempt in all stages of catheterization.

Total time for venipunctureintraoperatively

Total time for venipuncture was defined as the amount of time which took for successful subclavian venous puncture.
