Postoperative chest X-ray showing Edwards PreSep Oximetry Catheter with the tip located exactly at the carina level. An 8.5 Fr Edwards PreSep Oximetry Catheter (∇) was inserted at a depth of 10 cm inside an adult patient with a height of 163 cm and weighing 42 kg, and its tip was located exactly at the carina level by the postoperative chest X-ray

The catheter tips of the 8.5 Fr Edwards PreSep Oximetry Catheter and a normal central venous catheter (CVC) (e.g. 12G SMAC Plus triple lumen CVC). The openings of the proximal lumen and medial lumen are located at approximately 7 cm and 5 cm, respectively, from the catheter tip in the 8.5 Fr Edwards PreSep Oximetry Catheter (A), farther away from the catheter tip than normal CVCs (B)
