Abstract:
The arterial puncture is a procedure that patients and nurses are faced with suspicion by the pain it causes. We evaluate the effectiveness of a new protocol of arterial puncture with fine needle (paf) less painful and damaging. Comparative randomized design for independent samples on patients who request samples of arterial blood. Analysis of the variables of pain intensity compared pain and technical difficulty. Significant confirmation of the alternative hypothesis in favor of lower rates of pain and technical difficulty with paf.
