This prospective, single arm, multi-center study is to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the Surfacer System. Safety will be evaluated based on the overall rate of acute complications using the study device as compared to historical rates of device/procedure related safety events using conventional central venous access methods. Efficacy will be evaluated by the rate of transient successful central venous accesses created by the study device. A total of 30 patients are planned to be enrolled, with 10 patients initially following review of safety data. Duration expected to be through 7 days. A minimum of 3 sites will participate in the study in the United States.
