Since limited number of EZ-IO needles were available, the first IO accesses were made with 18GIVC needles in all infants.

The cases were divided into two groups: Group 1 (patients with IO access with 18GIVC at first successful attempt) and Group 2 (patients with IO access with EZ-IO drill at the second successful attempt).
