A central venous catheter (CVC) is an indwelling device inserted into a large, central vein (most commonly the internal jugular, subclavian, or femoral) and advanced until the terminal lumen resides within the inferior vena cava, superior vena cava, or right atrium. These devices and the techniques employed to place them are synonymous with "central line" or "central venous access." The

A central venous catheter (CVC) is a long, flexible tube your provider inserts into a vein in your neck, chest, arm or groin. It leads to your vena cava, a large vein that empties into your heart. A CVC helps you receive drugs, fluids or blood for emergency or long-term treatment. It also helps with blood draws. Types include PICC lines and ports.

The venous great vessels include the superior vena cava, inferior vena cava, brachiocephalic veins, internal jugular veins, subclavian veins, iliac veins, and common femoral veins.

INTRODUCTION. Secure and reliable venous access is a cornerstone in the care of hospitalized adult patients, as well as for a variety of outpatient situations. Central venous access (ie, insertion of a vascular catheter such that the tip terminates in a deep vein of the neck, chest, or abdomen) is a key component of this practice.

Central venous access is essential in providing quality medical care to many patients for whom intensive therapy is required. In many situations, a semipermanent tunneled central line is preferred (see Indications).An anterior approach to the internal jugular vein (IJV) is the best option in this situation because it offers the easiest route with a low risk of complications.

A central venous catheter was inadvertently placed into a pulmonary vein in a patient with undiagnosed partial anomalous pulmonary venous return. A post procedure chest X-ray revealed that the catheter tip was in the hilum of the left lung. A blood gas drawn from this misplaced catheter, a preexisting dialysis catheter and an arterial catheter showed different Po2 values of 167 mmHg, 26 mmHg
