Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
First pass successful cannulation rate. Successful cannulation will be defined as free aspiration of blood and good arterial trace from arterial line. If artery is cannulated successfully in a single prick it will be defined as Successful first pass cannulationTimepoint: it will be assessed at the time of Radial artery cannulation (baseline) after induction of anaesthesia and before start of surgery.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Time taken for cannulation. It is defined as time elapsed from first skin prick to adequate arterial line trace.Timepoint: It will be assessed at the time of Radial artery cannulation (baseline) after induction of anaesthesia & before start of surgery. It will be assessed a single time;No. of skin puncturesTimepoint: It will be assessed at the time of Radial artery cannulation (baseline) after induction of anaesthesia & before start of surgery. It will be assessed a single time;Incidence of attempt failure. Attempt failure will be recorded if limb of insertion is changed. Timepoint: It will be assessed at the time of Radial artery cannulation (baseline) after induction of anaesthesia & before start of surgery. It will be assessed a single time;Incidence of Positional arterial . It is defined as arterial line whose trace gets distorted with slight change in wrist position.Timepoint: It will be assessed immediately at the after Radial artery fixation (baseline) after induction of anaesthesia & before start of surgery. It will be assessed a single time;Hematoma at the site of Radial arterial line.Timepoint: The site will be examined daily till postoperative day 5. It will be assessed six times at 24 hour intervals starting from postoperative day 0 at end of surgery to postoperative day 5;Ischaemic complicationsTimepoint: The site will be examined daily till postoperative day 5. It will be assessed six times at 24 hour intervals starting from postoperative day 0 at end of surgery to postoperative day 5
