Abstract

Objective: To investigate the relationship between peripheral and central venous pressures in different patient positions (supine, prone, lithotomy, Trendelenburg, and Fowler), different catheter diameters (18 G and 20 G), and catheterization sites (dorsal hand and forearm) during surgical procedures.
