Evaluation of the Sherlock 3CG Tip Confirmation System on peripherally inserted central catheter malposition rates.

abstract：:The short-term objective of the DHSS of a 1:1 consultant: junior ratio by 1988 is compatible with current trends in consultant expansion and implies no reduction in registrars before then. The target of doubling the number of consultants in 15 years cannot be met in anaesthesia without a fairly sharp, and relatively s...
