title: [Training of internal jugular vein cannulation: comparison of landmark method with ultrasound-guided method].
abstract: We compared training of internal jugular vein cannulation with ultrasound-guided method and that with landmark method in a group of 10 residents and that of 10 staffs. Cannulation was increasingly successful with both methods as the training proceeded, and with increasingly less time and fewer number of punctures. There was no statistically significant difference in time or in number of punctures with ultrasound-guided method between the groups. Ultrasound-guided method needed fewer number of punctures than those with landmark method in both groups.
