Verification of the Correct Insertion of a Central Venous Catheter

October 28, 2023 updated by: Paula Gil Esteller, Consorci Sanitari de Terrassa

Verification of the Correct Insertion of a Supradiaphragmatic Central Venous Catheter by a Single Echocardiographic Plane

The investigators propose a prospective diagnostic validity study in which the correct location of the central venous catheter will be verified by ultrasound and then verified by radiography in the same patient, without modifying the usual clinical practice criteria.

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Diagnostic
  • Allocation: Non-Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: Single

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: CVC location with Rx
After placement of the CVC we will perform the X-ray and subsequent verification of the correct location. Simultaneously, a stopwatch will be started to calculate the time interval until the interpretation of the X-ray by the anesthesiologist.
Central venous catheter verified by ultrasound and then verified by radiography.
Active Comparator: CVC location with echocardiography
Cardiac ultrasound will be performed to visualize the correct position of the CVC tip, and the time until the interpretation of the ultrasound results will also be monitored.
Central venous catheter verified by ultrasound and then verified by radiography.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
To determine the incidence of malposition of central venous catheter
Time Frame: Through study completion, an average of 1 year
Incidence of malposition measured by echocardiography and chest radiography in confirming the correct positioning of the tip of the supradiaphragmatic central venous catheter. Moreover, this check can be performed in a shorter time interval.
Through study completion, an average of 1 year
