However, there has been no study evaluating the doctor position for US-CVC insertion” Yamasaki et al (2018).

Abstract:

Central venous catheters (CVCs) provide vascular access for fluid resuscitation, drugs, and antibiotics, and also allow hemodynamic monitoring and cardiac pacing. Recently, the ultrasound-guided CVC (US-CVC) technique has become available, which allows differentiation between veins and arteries and improves CVC safety [1,2]. Previous study has shown that arm abduction can enhance the real-time ultrasound-guided infraclavicular proximal axillary venous catheterization [3]. However, there has been no study evaluating the doctor position for US-CVC insertion.
