A method of locating a tip of a central venous catheter (“CVC”) having a distal and proximal pair of electrodes disposed within the superior vena cava, right atrium, and/or right ventricle. The method includes obtaining a distal and proximal electrical signal from the distal and proximal pair of electrodes and using those signals to generate a distal and proximal P wave, respectively. A deflection value is determined for each of the P waves. A ratio of the deflection values is then used to determine a location of the tip of the CVC. Optionally, the CVC may include a reference pair of electrodes disposed within the superior vena cava from which a reference deflection value may be obtained. A ratio of one of the other deflection values to the reference deflection value may be used to determine the location of the tip of the CVC.
1. A method of locating a tip of a central venous catheter based on a reference P wave detected by a reference pair of electrodes, a first P wave detected by a first pair of electrodes disposed near the tip of the central venous catheter, and a second P wave detected by a second pair of electrodes d

The method according to claim 1, wherein comparing the first deflection value to the second deflection value comprises calculating a first ratio of the first deflection value to the second deflection value, and wherein determining the location of the tip of the central venous catheter based on the comparison of the first and second deflection values and the comparison of the reference P wave with at least one of the first and second P waves comprise comparing the first ratio to a predetermined maximum threshold. 3. The method according to claim 1, wherein comparing the first deflection value to the second deflection value comprises calculating a first ratio of the first deflection value to the second deflection value, and wherein determining the location of the tip of the central venous catheter based on the comparison of the first and second deflection values and the comparison of the reference P wave with at least one of the first and second P waves comprise comparing the first ratio to a predetermined minimum threshold. 4.
