Study Summary

Measurements will be made between the internal jugular vein and the carotid artery using an ultrasound machine as the subjects is asked to move and position his or her neck in various positions. It is hypothesized that by movements of the neck the investigators can maximize the distance between the internal jugular vein and the carotid artery to decrease inadvertent cannulation of the carotid artery to improve patient safety

Primary Outcome

Is there an angle to position ones neck which maximizes distances of carotid artery and internal jugular.

Interventions

  • OTHER Neck Angle
