Inadvertent intra-arterial injection of atracurium in a pediatric patient

Abstract

During peripheral venous cannulation, accidental arterial cannulation can occur. Unintentional intra-arterial injections of drugs through arterial cannula may cause tissue necrosis, moreover initiate a clinical process which leads to limb amputation. Therefore, all healthcare professionals who perform peripheral venous cannulation and intravenous drug administration, should be aware of the symptoms and treatment of accidental intra-arterial drug injection. In this case report, we present an unintentional brachial artery cannulation, and subsequent 0.5 mg/kg arterial atracurium injection, thus developing circulatory disorder in a patient who was treated promptly.
