Purpose
To evaluate the feasibility of guidewire detection in right cardiac cavities by transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) in order to detect catheter misplacement and to optimize central venous catheter (CVC) positioning. Ultrasonic control for catheter tip positioning was compared to that by chest X-ray (CXR).
Methods
We conducted a mo...
