Brief Summary
Arterial cannulation is indicated in several clinical settings: high-risk surgery, respiratory failure, circulatory failure. The possible anatomical sites of cannulation are: a.radialis, a.brachialis, a. femoralis. However, the most reported complications in preschool-aged children are associated with femoral and brachial arteries. Therefore, alternative cannulation sites are being searched as ulnar artery, tibial posterior artery.
