Comparison Between Supraclavicular And Infraclavicular Approach For Right Subclavian Venous Catheterization

A central venous catheter (CVC) is an indwelling device that is peripherally inserted into a large, central vein (most commonly the internal jugular, subclavian, or femoral) and advanced until the terminal lumen resides within the inferior vena cava, superior vena cava, or right atrium.for a multitude of indications including; total parenteral nutrition administration dialysis, plasmapheresis , medication administration, hemodynamic monitoring and to facilitate further complex interventions such as transvenous pacemaker placement inserted with Seldinger's technique. A notable advance is the adjunct of ultrasound guidance, which has recently become the standard of care for CVCs placed in wanted site owing to associated decreases in complications e.g. arterial puncture, haematoma formation, pneumothorax, haemothorax and catheterization failure and an increase in first-pass success.
