Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of two different arm postures on radial artery puncture. Methods We randomly divided 100 patients into control group and experiment group according to the operation sequence, 50 patients in each group. In the control group, the traditional method was used for radial artery puncture and sheath placement, while in the experiment group the modified method was used. Result Compared with the control group, the success rate of radial artery puncture in the experiment group was significantly higher (P<0.05), and the time needed was significantly shorter (P<0.05). Conclusions The modified arm posture for radial artery puncture and sheath placement is more effective for exposure of the radial artery puncture point and ensure the stability of the puncture site. With this method, we can improve the success rate of radial artery puncture and shorten the puncture time. It is worthy of clinical application.
