Randomized comparison of three guidewire insertion depths on incidence of arrhythmia during central venous catheterization

摘要

Objective: Guidewire-induced arrhythmias that occur during central venous catheterization can progress to malignant arrhythmias in rare cases. This study compared the incidence of arrhythmia during central venous catheterization using three different depths of guidewire insertion into the right internal jugular vein.
