Abstract:BackgroundIn children, central venous catheter (CVC) placement is usually performed under ultrasound guidance for optimal visualization of vessels and reduction of puncture‐related complications. Nevertheless, in many cases, additional radiographic examinations are performed to check the position of the catheter tip.AimThe primary objective of this observational feasibility study was to determine the number of ultrasound‐guided central venous catheter tips that can be identified in a subsequent position check … Show more
