Overview

Retrospective analysis reveals similar outcomes in puncture attempts, suggesting ultrasound guidance may reduce complications.

Key Points

  • The use of ultrasound guidance showed a trend toward reducing hematoma occurrence compared to conventional methods.
  • Hematomas appeared in 7.4% of the US-guided group versus 25.9% in the conventional group, indicating potential benefits.
  • Overall success and attempt rates were comparable between ultrasound-guided and conventional punctures.
  • The demographic and clinical characteristics were similar, ensuring a valid comparison of the techniques.
