Does the use of a curved probe guide facilitate catheter insertion in small vessels in pediatric patients?
A novel curved probe guide simplifies and accelerates the insertion of catheters into small vessels in pediatric patients while minimizing vessel trauma.
Hohn et al. (1959) studied Catheterization of small vessels. Curved stainless steel probe guide was evaluated. A newly designed curved stainless steel probe guide facilitates the rapid and less traumatic insertion of catheters into small vessels in pediatric patients.
