“…Although the central venous catheter-related complication rate is as high as 10 %, the rate of serious or fatal complications is quite low (1)(2)(3)(4)(5) . Potential complications include failure to enter into the vein for cannulation, subclavian arterial puncture, misplacement of the catheter, pneumothorax, hemothorax, damage to neighboring nerves and mediastinal hematoma (4,5) . The most common complication is pneumothorax with a rate of 2-3 %, and about one-quarter of these complications are observed in unsuccessful catheter attempts (3) .…”

“…The rate of complication has been reported to be 4.3 % for 1 attempt, 10.9 % for 2 attempts and 24 % for 3 or more attempts, respectively (2) . Additionally, large-bore catheter, catheter texture of poor quality, rigidity of the catheter and a catheter with a mobile tip are other risk factors for the venous perforation (4,5) .…”
