Brief Summary
The increase in internal diameter (ID) and cross-sectional area (CSA) may facilitate better arterial catheterization. Since an increase in body temperature can cause peripheral vasodilation, we aimed to determine if local warming of the radial artery (RA) catheterization site could improve the success rate of catheterization in pediatric patients.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria: * aged ≤ 2 years * cardiac surgery with peripheral artery catheterization Exclusion Criteria: * unstable vital signs * pre-existing arterial catheter (exception of umbilical artery catheterization)
