Brief Summary: The main objective of this study is to compare the rate of successful establishment of a central venous catheter in the first two attempts of ultrasound-guided puncture between two techniques: (1) a subclavian technique versus (2) an axillary technique.
Detailed Description: The secondary objectives of this study are to compare the following between the two techniques: * the success rate of the establishment of a central venous catheter * the success rate of establishment of a central venous catheter at the first attempt at venipuncture * for non-failures (eg, a catheter is placed in the first four trys), time to cannulation * the presence / absence of the following complications: * arterial puncture (yes / no) * pneumothorax (yes / no) * hemothorax (yes / no) * hematoma (yes / no) * nerve injury (yes / no) * aberrant course (yes / no) The reasons catheter placement failures will also be described.
