Summary

The GPS system would simplify the technical implementation of central venous catheter under ultrasound guidance. We can assume that the introduction of deep venous pathways (as a reference, the internal jugular) will be faster, and this, whatever the level of expertise. By checking this hypothesis, this technique could be applied to much less frequent situations establishment of difficult central venous catheters (hemodynamic status precarious, hypovolemia, or cardiac arrest).

The main objective of this study is to evaluate the time savings provided by the ultrasound assisted GPS guidance for installing central venous catheters in the internal jugular. Central venous catheters are inserted in the operating room under conditions scheduled in advance that is to say outside emergency. The installation time for the central venous catheter is compared with that obtained by using the ultrasound machine without the GPS guide ("conventional" technique).
