While it allows for more precise blood pressure management, it might also lead to prehospital treatment delays. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the potential impact of prehospital invasive blood pressure measurement on treatment times.

Article Synopsis
- Prehospital arterial cannulation for patients with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) is being studied to see if it delays the time to the first head CT scan compared to in-hospital cannulation.
- The retrospective study included 181 patients and found that the median time from on-scene arrival to the first head CT was similar for both groups, with only a 1-minute difference.
- The results suggest that prehospital arterial line insertion by experienced providers does not significantly delay care, supporting its use in urgent situations.*
