Radial Artery Model For Catheterization Procedures, Kyla Beville, Mitchell Gagnon, Benjamin Stalls, Maya Ariza

Williams Honors College, Honors Research Projects

The purpose of this project was to create a radial artery model that is usable under ultrasound that would reduce complications during catheterization procedures. Each year, over one million of these procedures are done and complications can affect the outcomes of the patient. Using ultrasound during these procedures is an upcoming way to reduce these complications and improve the outcome that a patient will have.
