NCT04001764

Brief Summary

In this prospective, randomized, open-labeled study, the intensive care patients will be selected for ultrasound-guided cannulation of the radial artery in three different regions. Patients will be divided into three groups with simple randomization. The first group will be determined as 'G1' and the radial artery catheterization with ultrasound-guided short axis out of plane intervention will be performed over 2 cm of the wrist for this group. On the second group (G2), radial artery catheterization will be performed in the distal 3/4 area of the forearm with ultrasound-guided short axis out of plane intervention. On the third group (G3), radial arterial catheterization will be performed in the distal 1/2 area of the forearm with ultrasound-guided short axis out of plane interference. Whether there is a difference in the duration of use of arterial cannula, first entry success rates, duration of intervention, number of procedures, the number of cannulas used and the effects on early and late complications and advantages between the groups will be investigated.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Admission of the first degree relatives of the patients and if the patient can give consent
  • Patients over 18
  • Non-pregnant patients
  • Patients without inotropic/vasopressor support
  • Patients who do not have contraindications for radial artery cannulation (thrombosis in the distal region, a focus of infection at the site of entry, lack of adequate collateral flow in the Allen test, peripheral vascular diseases \[eg, Raynaud's disease)\]

You may not qualify if:

  • Patient/Patient's first degree relatives refuse to work
  • Patients under 18
  • Pregnant patients
  • Patients with contraindications for radial artery cannulation (thrombosis in the distal region, a focus of infection at the site of entry, lack of adequate collateral flow in the Allen test, peripheral vascular diseases \[eg, Raynaud's disease)\]
  • Patient's inotropic/vasopressor support
