Intravenous electrocardiographic guidance (IVECG) is a safe, reliable and accurate technique to correctly position the catheter tip. The investigators sought to evaluate the superiority of the P-maximal (P-max) wave compared to the P-submaximal (P-submax) wave in obtaining a more correct, safer and longer lasting device placement, with a lower incidence of complications and secondary misplacement.
