Abstract: With the rapid development of medical career in our country, in order to better solve the pain of patients, reduce the incidence of adverse events, medical means innovation, PICC catheter PICC catheter tip positioning as the impact tube catheterization and use one of the key factors is no exception, and after clinical trials found that the cavity joint ultrasonic electrocardiogram can help guide the PICC catheter tube tip more economy is simple and accurate positioning, the extensive concern to the medical field, the scholars have this question has carried on the detailed research and published many articles. In this paper, we read the literature of scholars in detail and reviewed the necessity, definition, principle and other theories of the application of ECG combined with ultrasound guided PICC catheter tip positioning, as well as the research and development, as well as the clinical application methods and effects. It is expected to be helpful to promote the application and development of ECG combined with ultrasound guided PICC catheter tip positioning.
