You’ve chosen one of the most selfless career paths. As a nurse, you devote every working day to taking care of others (and most likely, on your off days as well). Serving in a profession that is riddled with long shifts, high stress, few breaks, and little time to catch your breath between patients, it’s important to make yourself a priority.

Ultrasound has been a friend to central venous catheter placement for a long time. It's always there to make sure you are putting that line in the right place without causing problems. While this has been standard for internal jugular lines for years, it is only more recently that this has been proposed for subclavian lines. There is now ample literature supporting this latter practice, although as far as I know, it is not yet widely adopted.
