Abstract
Malposition of a central venous catheter occurs despite improvements in catheter design and regardless of the skill of the physician. A simple method of repositioning a central venous catheter has been successful in 25 of 25 attempts. Documentation of the rationale for the use of this technique is provided using x-rays.
