    AbstractA special splint technique, which can improve continuous intraarterial blood pressure monitoring via the a. radialis is reported. This method could be applied successfully in 41 patients of the ICU up to 27 days. Cannulating the contralateral side because of catheter's dysfunction was necessary only in 6 patients. These observations could be seen in contrast to our results, using a conventional splint system, applied in 12 patients for comparison (maximal duration of catheter's placement: 9 days). Our experiences, using this special splint method of arm fixation, lead to the recommendation to use our method routinely in long-term monitored patients, with respect to a longer duration of catheter's intravasal placement, the possibility of undisturbed monitoring and a simple clinical handling.
