Full description

Central venous catheterisation is a commonly performed procedure in anaesthesia, critical care, acute and emergency medicine. 1 , the subclavian vein (SCV) has been an important vessel for central venous cannulation.2 The SCV cannulation offers several advantages when compared to the common alternative sites for central venous access. These advantages may include fewer cases of thrombosis, infectious complications, better patient comfort, and increased ability to remain patent in hypovolemic states.3-4 Traditionally, subclavian venous catheterisation has been performed using the landmark technique and because of the complications associated with this technique, it is not commonly performed.1 the complications such as catheter malposition, arterial puncture, hematoma, pneumothorax, hemothorax, and nerve injury.
