Doctors test which neck vein is safer for Kids' hospital lines

NCT ID NCT07459088

Summary

This study compared two different neck vein locations for placing central venous catheters (central lines) in children. Researchers wanted to see if using the jugular-subclavian confluence (a specific vein junction) was as effective and safe as the traditional internal jugular vein approach when guided by ultrasound. The trial involved 88 children aged 1 month to 14 years who needed this type of line for intensive care or major surgery.
