Clinical settings of arterial catheter's insertion with new infrared device “MillSuss”

A continuous arterial line is an effective monitor for patients with severe complication such as aortic stenosis and internal carotid artery stenosis because we can measure constant monitoring and recording of the patient's blood pressure [1]. In particular, the insertion of radial artery is selected for safety and convenience [2]. MillSuss (Covidien, Tokyo, Japan; Fig. 1) is a newly developed wrist vascular visualize device with near infrared light. MillSuss can easily visualize a blood stream.
