Abstract
Superiority of internal jugular venipuncture to subclavian venipuncture as a central venous catheterization was evaluated in parameters such as duration of procedures, incidence of catheter misposition, and incidence of other complications. In internal jugular venipuncture, the duration of procedure was significantly shorter than that in subclavian venipuncture, and the incidence of catheter misposition was also significantly lower. Moreover, no major complications such as pneumothorax were observed in internal jugular venipuncture, although these complications occurred in small percentages in the subclavian venipuncture group. These results indicate a superiority of internal jugular venipuncture to subclavian venipuncture as a central catheterization owing to its safety and cost efficacy
