Another approach called the Pleural Avoidance with Rib Trajectory (PART) technique targets the axillary vein at a point where it traverses over the second rib during needle advancement (Figure 9). It provides a protective rib shield between the vein and pleura (Figure 10). It has been shown to reduce the risk of pneumothorax and allows for compression in case of bleeding (Figure 9. PART method (6)
