Article Synopsis
- Continuous arterial blood pressure measurement is important for monitoring high-risk patients during surgery, and a new device, Mill Suss™, uses near-infrared laser light to help visualize veins and arteries for easier access.
- A study tested the effectiveness of the Mill Suss-guided method versus traditional ultrasound-guided methods for radial artery catheterization, involving 72 adults split into two groups.
- Results showed that the Mill Suss method significantly reduced the time needed for successful catheterization, although the number of attempts was similar between both groups, suggesting experience might play a role.
