Increasing Security With End-zone Arterial Blood Pressure Monitoring During Surgery

Turkey (Türkiye)101 participantsStarted 2024-01-17

Plain-language summary

Short summary: The aim of this randomized controlled clinical research study was to compare distal radial artery cannulation with forearm radial artery cannulation in terms of efficacy and ease of administration. The investigators believe that cannulation of the distal radial artery in cases requiring invasive arterial monitoring should preserve the radial artery of the forearm for future health problems and reduce circulatory complications by working more distally. The main question\[s\] aims to answer are: * \[question 1\]: whether artery monitoring can be performed with a more distal approach * \[question 2\]: efficacy and safety of the distal approach

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.

Inclusion Criteria: * Patients who are scheduled for elective surgery * Aged 18 and above * ASA 1, 2, or 3 classifications * Requiring intraoperative arterial cannulation * At TC SBÜ Diyarbakır Gazi Yaşargil Training and Research Hospital will be included in the study Exclusion Criteria: * Under 18 years of age * ASA-4 classification * Presence of non-palpable arteries * Presence of burns or infection at the cannulation site * Peripheral vascular disease, bleeding or coagulation disorders * Negative modified Allen's test, and communication disorders. The withdrawal criteria for the study include a patient's desire to withdraw from the study at any stage and an extended cannulation time.

Questions worth asking your doctor

Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.

1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.

Questions for the trial coordinator

The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.

1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?

A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
