In order to improve the success rate of supraclavicular deep venous catheterization and reduce mechanical complications, we present an auxillary maneuver in regard to supraclavicular subclavian catheterization basing on the relatively fixed anatomy of subclavian vein and its adjacent surroundings, furthermore, we revised the standardized procedure of supraclavicular subclavian catheterization. The maneuver is summarized in the shape of verses (verses: thumb navigation is well designed according to anatomy. Needle penetrated into vein should be parallel to coronal plane. Fine needle in position should be immobilized. Is it difficult for parallel puncture? Pressure determination is required when needle is in place. It is critical to distinguish which vessel has been inserted. Guidewire is advanced smoothly. Check blood return after expansion of skin and catheterization.). For teaching convenience, verses are considered to be more concise and memorable, as well as applicable to clinical practice, in order to provide some help for clinical teaching.
