Abstract
Intracavitary electrocardiogram (IC-ECG) guidance is widely used for peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) placement. The P wave variation has rarely been reported in persistent left superior vena cava (PLSVC). Here, we report a PLSVC case of P wave variation in PICC placement guided by IC-ECG. In this case, the P wave variation of the PLSVC was quite different from that of the right superior vena cava (RSVC). The tip of the catheter was located at the lower segment of the left superior vena cava according to postoperative radiography examination. PICC functioned normally, and no complications occurred.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Vascular Access (JVA) is issued six times per year; it considers the publication of original manuscripts dealing with clinical and laboratory investigations in the fast growing field of vascular access. In addition reviews, case reports and clinical trials are welcome, as well as papers dedicated to more practical aspects covering new devices and techniques.
All contributions, coming from all over the world, undergo the peer-review process.
The Journal of Vascular Access is divided into independent sections, each led by Editors of the highest scientific level:
• Dialysis
• Oncology
• Interventional radiology
• Nutrition
• Nursing
• Intensive care
Correspondence related to published papers is also welcome.
