Ultrasound guided brachiocephalic vein cannulation: parasagittal out – plane approach

Abstract

Central venous cannulation (CVC) is a commonly performed technique in the perioperative period. Various modifications of the classical internal jugular vein (IJV)/ subclavian vein (SCV) approach have been described which prove handy in situations of difficult cannulation. Lately ultrasound guided brachiocephalic vein (BCV) cannulation has been described wherein the probe is kept transversely on the medial aspect of supraclavicular fossa to visualize the BCV.
