Measurement of Central venous pressure is very helpful to assess, the circulating blood volume, venous tone and preload of right ventricle. To obtain an accurate CVP, the correct placement of a CVP catheter is mandatory, There are many means of identifing the correct placement of a CVP catheter which was inserted through the internal jugular vein, subclavian vein and other veins. Authors have chosen the method of intracardiac EKG, which was very easy and useful clinically. The placement of a CVP catheter by intracardiac EKG using modified Lead II was verified by postoperative chest X-ray. |
