No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Central venous catheterization (CVC) is a fundamental procedure in anesthesiology and reanimation practice for critical clinical processes such as hemodynamic monitoring, vasoactive drug infusion, and fluid resuscitation. The internal jugular vein (IJV) is frequently preferred due to its superficial anatomical location and ease of access. This study aims to observe and compare the ultrasound (USG) guidance and the landmark method in patients scheduled for IJV catheterization.

Conditions

  • Central Vein Catheter
  • Ultrasound

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Ultrasound Guidance

Patients (n=72) receiving internal jugular vein catheterization performed with ultrasound guidance by an anesthesiologist with at least 2 years of USG experience or certification.

PROCEDURE

Landmark Technique

Patients receiving internal jugular vein catheterization performed using the traditional blind/anatomical landmark technique (typically by residents or clinicians gaining experience).
