Ultrasound Guidance Versus Anatomical Landmarks for CVC Catheterisation:

November 8, 2020 updated by: Francesco Forfori, University of Pisa

Ultrasound Guidance Versus Anatomical Landmarks for Succlavic and Femoral Vein Catheterisation: an Observational Prospective Study

anatomical landmarks on the body surface were used to insert central vein catheter. However, ultrasound technique is emerging as a new technique for vein catheterisation. For subclavian and femoral vein catheterisation, up to now, there is a lack of evidence of the superiority of one technique over the other.
