Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Accurate placement of central venous catheter (CVC) tip at the superior vena cava (SVC)-right atrium (RA) junction using ultrasoundTimepoint: Baseline Post procedure | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1) To assess the utility of rapid atrial swirl sign to detect the correct placement of the Central venous catheter (CVC) tip at the SVC-RA junction. 2) To assess the quality of view obtained by subcostal/subcostal bicaval view for visualisation of SVC-RA junction. 3) To correlate the catheter insertion depth achieved using ultrasound guidance with the depth derived from height-based formulae. 4) To correlate the accuracy of central venous catheter (CVC) tip placement at the SVC-RA junction using ultrasound with that determined by chest radiograph.
