Implication

Randomized clinical trial compares outcomes of two ultrasound-guided techniques for vein cannulation in a special position, suggesting potential preferences for practice.

Key Points

The study aims to compare the feasibility and safety of two ultrasound-guided approaches for RIJV cannulation in the left decubitus position.
Randomly assigning 74 patients to oblique-axis or short-axis groups for IJV cannulation.
Patients will be positioned in left decubitus with surgical bed rotated 20° to Trendelenburg.
Measuring primary and secondary endpoints including first-time puncture rate and catheterization success.
Expect the oblique-axis approach to have a higher first-time puncture rate than the short-axis approach.
A decrease in overall catheterization time is anticipated in the oblique-axis group.
Anticipating fewer venipuncture attempts and lower incidence of mechanical complications with the oblique-axis approach.
