EASY Central Line Placement (Central Venous Catheter) | Behind the Knife - Bedside Procedures Ep 2

***As a couple viewers have noted, we accidentally left out the shot where we removed the wire! You should remove the wire after the catheter is inserted over it! :) ***

I LOVE placing central lines! Join me as we learn how to EASILY nail the IJ, subclavian, and femoral central lines. If you haven't already seen our video on Ultrasound-Guided Access, consider watching that first!
