A quantitative analysis of the relation between the clavicular tilt angle and subclavian central venous catheter misplacement

Abstract: ObjectiveThe aim of the present study was to investigate the relation between shoulder position and subclavian central venous (SCV) catheter misplacement. The shoulder position was estimated using clavicular tilt angle (CTA) values observed on anteroposterior chest X-ray images.MethodsA retrospective case-control study was conducted on all adult patients who underwent SCV catheterization in the emergency department during a 12-month period. Collected data included patient age, sex, diagnosis, catheterization s… Show more

“…Internal jugular vein catheterization (IJC) is useful in emergency departments (ED) for monitoring hemodynamic status and for infusion of fluid or nutrients. As compared to subclavian vein catheterization, IJC has fewer complications such as pneumothorax or hemothorax, and thus is more often recommended [ 1 ].…”
