Selective catheter placement involves guiding a catheter to a specific target area within the body, such as a particular blood vessel or organ. Nonselective catheter placement, on the other hand, does not have a specific target and may involve placing a catheter in a more general location within the body, such as a vein or artery. Selective placement is often used for targeted procedures, while nonselective placement may be used for more general purposes like fluid administration or monitoring.
