NCT03077802

Brief Summary

The investigators intend to compare the Seldinger technique and modified Seldinger technique on success rate and complications during central venous catheterization by a prospective, randomized, controlled study. The investigators are planning to compare both techniques in both experienced (anesthesiologist board member) and non-experienced practitioners (first and second-grade resident).

Study Arms (4)

Modified Seldinger technique, Experienced group

EXPERIMENTAL

Under ultrasound-guide, we will use needle that is covered with guiding sheath. After desired vessel puncture, guiding sheath is instantly slid over the needle into the vessel. The needle is withdrawn, guidewire is advanced through the guiding sheath, central catheter is placed into the vessel. The procedure will be performed by experienced practitioner who were defined as board-certified anesthesiologist staffs and had experience of more than 50 central venous catheterizations in both techniques.

Other: Modified Seldinger technique, Experienced groupOther: Long-axis techniqueOther: Short-axis technique

Seldinger technique, Experienced group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Under ultrasound-guide, the desired vessel is punctured with a sharp hollow needle, syringe is detached and guidewire is advanced through the lumen of the needle, and then the needle is withdrawn. Central catheter is then passed over the guidewire into the vessel. The procedure will be performed by experienced practitioner who were defined as board-certified anesthesiologist staffs and had experience of more than 50 central venous catheterizations in both techniques.

EXPERIMENTAL

Under ultrasound-guide, we will use needle that is covered with guiding sheath. After desired vessel puncture, guiding sheath is instantly slid over the needle into the vessel. The needle is withdrawn, guidewire is advanced through the guiding sheath, central catheter is placed into the vessel. The procedure will be performed by inexperienced practitioner who were junior residents and had experience of less than 50 central venous catheterizations in both techniques.

Seldinger technique, Inexperienced group

Ultrasound probe is placed parallel to the vessel trajectories and needle is advanced using in-plane approach.
