Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study aimed to determine the accuracy of the V technique in predicting the location of the femoral vein compared to the technique of palpating the femoral artery with the use of USGss as a standard in determining the exact location of the femoral vein.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

One hundred and fifteen subjects were allocated into two large groups, V tecnique group and palpation tecnique group. Researchers will perform the V technique on the patient's inguinal area. This technique was performed using the researcher's contralateral hand. After the V technique is performed, the next researcher will perform the technique of palpating the femoral artery pulse at the exact location as the V technique. This technique is done by palpating the femoral artery pulsation using the examiner's index and middle fingers along the inguinal ligament; the location of the femoral vein is at 1 cm. medial to the femoral artery 2 cm inferior to the inguinal ligament. This location is marked "y" with a UV marker. researchers will compare the accuracy of both techniques in determining the exact location of femoral veins.
