Key result
Modified pacemaker insertion technique enables large-caliber central venous catheter implantation without direct vein exposure.
Why the study?
A new method was needed to implant large caliber long-term central venous cannulae while avoiding direct vein exposure.
A technique adapted from pacemaker insertion allows for the placement of large caliber long-term central venous cannulae without direct vein exposure.
A technique of permanent pacemaker insertion has been adapted to implantation of long‐term central venous cannulae. This new method allows large caliber cannula implantation while avoiding direct exposure of the vein to be cannulated.
