Ultrasonographic Evaluation of the Radial and Ulnar Blood Flow After Radial Arterial Cannulation

Completed
Conditions
Radial Artery, Regional Blood Flow
Interventions
Device: 20 gauge catheter
Device: 22 gauge catheter
Registration Number
NCT01089972
Lead Sponsor
Severance Hospital
Brief Summary

The aim of this randomized study was to compare the impact of two different radial arterial catheters - 20G and 22G - on the changes of diameter, blood flow and velocity of radial artery and ulnar artery after induction of anesthesia and after cannulation.
