Brief Summary

The use of Ultrasonography (USG) in arterial catheterization, in which the comfort of the practitioner and hand-eye coordination become very important, is frequently needed by anesthesiologists in their daily practice. The aim of this study is to evaluate the success rate and anesthesiologist's satisfaction between two practitioners with different levels of experience in radial artery catheterization with smart glasses USG.

Conditions

Catheterization; Cannulation

Keywords

Radial artery cannulation; Ultrasonography; Smart glasses

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• The success rate

  After the catheterization, when the artery waveform was on monitor, the catheterization was considered successful.

  At the end of the radial artery catheterization

• The anesthesiologist's satisfaction

  The ergonomic satisfaction of the practitioner was evaluated on a 5-point Likert scale (1: Very dissatisfied, 2: Dissatisfied, 3: Undecided, 4: Satisfied, 5: Very satisfied).

  At the end of the radial artery catheterization

Secondary Outcomes (2)

• The cannulation time

  At the end of the radial artery catheterization

• Complications

  At the end of the radial artery catheterization

Study Arms (2)

Group I

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients underwent radial artery catheterization using standard USG

Other: Radial artery catheterization with USG

Group II

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients underwent radial artery catheterization using smart glasses integrated UGG

Other: Radial artery catheterization with smart glasses integrated UGG

Interventions

Radial artery catheterization with USG OTHER

Radial artery catheterization with USG The catheterization was performed by two anesthesiologist with different experience (Junior practitoner who has the experience of 20-50, and the senior practitioner who has the experience of \>50 radial artery catheterizations). The side to be catheterized was determined by modifie Allen test which was first performed on the nondominant hand. After general anesthesia induction, a 45° angle was given to wirst of selected side with a support. After skin asepsis, radial artery was vizualized 2 centimeter (cm) above the wrist in short axis with the high-frequency linear USG probe. The radial artery puncture was performed while step by step monitoring the needle tip in short axis out-of-plane technique. Following the puncture, radial artery catheterized with a 3 French 8 cm catheter.

Group I

Radial artery catheterization with smart glasses integrated UGG OTHER

The catheterization was performed by two anesthesiologist with different experience (Junior practitoner who has the experience of 20-50, and the senior practitioner who has the experience of \>50 radial artery catheterizations). Before the study, as practitioners had no previous experience with smart glasses, they performed 5 catheterizations with smart glasses integrated USG on model. The side to be catheterized was determined by modifie Allen test which was first performed on the nondominant hand. After general anesthesia induction, a 45° angle was given to wirst of selected side with a support. After skin asepsis, radial artery was vizualized 2 centimeter (cm) above the wrist in short axis with smart glasses integrated high-frequency linear USG probe. The radial artery puncture was performed while step by step monitoring the needle tip in short axis out-of-plane technique. Following the puncture, radial artery catheterized with a 3 French 8 cm catheter.
