Ultrasound-guided central venous tip confirmation via right external jugular vein using a right supraclavicular fossa view.

Introduction:: Ultrasound-guided central venous catheter tip confirmation has a potential to precisely locate the central venous catheter, preventing its misplacement, using real-time guidance. This observational study sought to determine the accuracy of central venous catheter tip positioning via the external jugular vein via a supraclavicular fossa view under ultrasound guidance.

Methods:: In total, 77 patients scheduled for central venous catheter insertion via the right external jugular vein were enrolled.
