Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

catheterization success rate

Subclavian vein catheterization will be performed after the induction of anesthesia and before the start of surgery.

Time frame: immediately after catheterization (an expected average of 1 hour)

Secondary Outcomes

location of catheter tip

Postoperative chest X-ray will be taken to check for the location of catheter tip immediately after surgery.

Time frame: an expected average of one day after surgery
