Summary
The most common complications of electrophysiology (EP) procedures are related to vascular access. In contrast to the traditional palpation-guided technique, ultrasound-guided punctures may provide potential benefits to reduce the rate of vascular complications. The purpose of this article is to review the available scientific data on vascular ultrasound guided femoral venous punctures during electrophysiological procedures, to present our own results, and to present the method used in our own laboratory.
