Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: ? Inpatient at the hospital ? Existing ability to provide information and give consent ? Ability to report pain intensity and location ? Indication for creating a ZVK ? Puncture and implantation site via the internal jugular vein (right or left)

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: ? Reciprocal statements of the inclusion criteria ? Patient's refusal to participate ? Richmond Agitation Sedation Score (RASS) no lower than -1 and no higher than +2 ? Sonographic control not technically feasible ? Known anatomical anomalies in the implantation and/or anesthetic area (e.g. surgery in the area of the right jugular vein, e.g. neck dissection) ? Infections in the implantation and/or anesthesia area ? Allergy to local anesthetics (medical history) ? Psychiatric illnesses that make it difficult for the patient to cooperate in the investment situation (clinical assessment) ? Existing acute, chronic or residual neurological symptoms involving the nerve structures of the cervical plexus (e.g. herniated disc, residual paralysis, polyneuropathy of the upper extremities) ? The patient has already taken part in a current study (e.g. in the case of re-CVC installation or CVC change) or is taking part in other studies

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Extent of the difference in the mean values ??of the pain reported by the intervention and control groups during the procedure on the Verbal Numerical Rating Scale (VNPRS).

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
a) Proportion of patients with severe pain (VNPRS >/= 6) compared to the control group. b) Difference in the frequencies of CVC-associated adverse effects in the intervention and control groups. c) Frequency of adverse effects of the cervical plexus blockade in the intervention group.
