    AbstractDuring a 12-month period, infraclavicular subclavian catheterization, using a Seldinger technique, was attempted on 77 occasions in 54 children with a median age of 2 years (range newborn to 10 years). General anaesthesia was used in the majority of cases, and catheterization was successful in 74 cases (96%). The initial catheter tip position was satisfactory in 81% of the cases, and catheters remained in situ for a median period of 7 days (range 1-28 days). There were few complications. Providing extensive experience in subclavian venous cannulation is gained in the adult, there is in our experience no minimal age or size which should limit the use of a subclavian vein catheter.
