Guidewire-assisted Radial A-line in Neonate and Infant

In neonate and infant, radial artery cannulation may be challenging and multiple attempts are required because of the small diameter.

The invastigators will compare the success rates of radial arterial cannulation with a guidewire-assisted technique and the direct technique in pediatric patient(<1yr).

Inclusion criteria

  • Pediatric patients undergoing general anesthesia with arterial cannulation (for hemodynamic monitoring or blood sampling)

Exclusion criteria

  • Skin lesion, infection, hematoma, recent cannulation at cannulation site
  • Unstable radial pulse (d/t unstable vital sign, or arrhythmias)

Treatment and study plan

Guidewire-assist

Procedure

catheter insertion with guidewire-assist(catheter over guidewire)

Direct

Procedure

catheter insertion without guidewire assist(catheter over needle)

Primary outcomes

  1. success rate at 1st attempt (%)

    Time frame: from arterial cannulation to successful invasive BP monitoring (up to 1 hour)

    successful catheter insertion after obtaining 1st blood flush in angiocatheter.

Secondary outcomes

  1. total elapsed time (seconds)

    Time frame: from arterial cannulation to successful invasive BP monitoring (up to 1 hour)

    total time for successful cannulation.

  2. number of total cannulation attempts (number)

    Time frame: from arterial cannulation to successful invasive BP monitoring (up to 1 hour)

    number of total attempts until successful cannulation. (1 attempt = 1 blood flush)

  3. number of total catheter used (number)

    Time frame: from arterial cannulation to successful invasive BP monitoring (up to 1 hour)

    number of total catheter used until successful cannulation.

  4. malfunction of arterial line

    Time frame: from the start of invasive BP monitoring until the end of anesthesia (up to 1 day)

    pressure monitoring, blood sampling

  5. complications

    Time frame: from the arterial cannulation until the end of anesthesia (up to 1 day)

    hematoma, ischemia
