Effect of Local Warming for Arterial Catheterization in Pediatric Anesthesia

Recruiting now · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Congenital Heart Disease

In brief

The increase in internal diameter (ID) and cross-sectional area (CSA) may facilitate better arterial catheterization. Since an increase in body temperature can cause peripheral vasodilation, we aimed to determine if local warming of the radial artery (RA) catheterization site could improve the success rate of catheterization in pediatric patients.
