Implication

Avoidable subclavian complications during CVP monitoring warrant technique review; case reports leave optimal access site open for prospective study.

I
Intervention
Percutaneous puncture of the subclavian vein with introduction of a large-bore (No. 14 or 17) Bardic Intracath into the superior vena cava
O
