Ultrasound guidance for placing a neck IV line during anesthesia
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests an ultrasound method to help place a line in the neck vein while you’re under general anesthesia. It mainly aims to improve how safely and accurately the line is positioned.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial looks at the best spot to place an internal jugular (neck) catheter when you are having surgery under general anesthesia. It may help make catheter placement safer and more comfortable by comparing techniques.
This study uses ultrasound to look at a vein in your neck before and after major abdominal surgery to understand how surgery affects your kidneys. Researchers hope this simple imaging technique might help predict and prevent kidney problems after surgery.
This study tests whether an ultrasound can better guide placement of a neck vein tube and help estimate your body's fluid status, aiming to make the procedure safer and more accurate.
This study creates a simple score to predict how easy or hard it will be to place a central line in your neck using ultrasound. The goal is to help doctors plan safer and more successful procedures.
This trial tests a new way to manage fluids during abdominal surgery by using ultrasound to check the internal jugular vein in your neck. The goal is to see if this approach reduces complications after surgery.
This trial compares two ways to place a central line (a large IV) in the neck of patients on breathing machines in the ICU. It uses ultrasound to guide the needle, aiming to make the procedure safer and more successful.
