NCT ID NCT02878915

Summary

This study aimed to find out if using an ultrasound machine to guide the placement of a catheter in a child's leg artery is better than the standard method. It involved 149 children who needed this procedure for neurological treatments. Researchers compared how often doctors succeeded on the first try with and without ultrasound guidance.
