An estimation of right- and left-sided central venous catheter insertion depth using measurement of surface landmarks along the course of central veins.

abstract：:The cold pressor test is often used to assess vasoconstrictive responses because it simulates the vasoconstrictive challenges commonly encountered in the clinical setting. With IRB approval, 12 healthy volunteers, aged 25--50 yr, underwent baseline plethysmographic monitoring on the finger and ear. The contralateral h...
