Registration Number
NCT02624323
Lead Sponsor
Uniwersytecki Szpital Kliniczny w Opolu
Brief Summary

The main intention of this study is to compare two ultrasound-guided central venous catheterization procedures namely: real-time, ultrasound-guided, in plane axillary vein catheterization and real-time, ultrasound-guided, out of plane jugular vein catheterization in terms of venipuncture, catheterization success, early mechanical complication and catheter-related infection rate in mechanically ventilated patients admitted to the intensive care unit.
