Ultrasound guidance for radial artery catheterization: an updated meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.

<h4>Background</h4>Since a previous meta-analysis reported that ultrasound guidance was associated with a higher first-attempt success rate in catheterization of the radial artery, a number of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have reported inconsistent results. The aim of the present...
