No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The main objective of this study is to compare the rate of successful establishment of a central venous catheter in the first two attempts of ultrasound-guided puncture between two techniques: (1) a subclavian technique versus (2) an axillary technique.

Conditions

  • Central Venous Catheterization

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Axillary strategy

The first two attempts at central venous catheterization will be performed via the distal approach (axillary vein). The third and fourth attempts at central venous catheterization will be performed by the medial approach (subclavian vein). The same puncture material/devices will be used in both arms of the study.

PROCEDURE

Subclavian strategy

The first two attempts at central venous catheterization will be performed by the medial approach (subclavian vein). The third and fourth attempts at central venous catheterization will be performed by the distal approach (axillary vein). The same puncture material/devices will be used in both arms of the study.
