    Objective: Systematize the evidence on the effectiveness of ultrasonography for the success of peripheral catheterization in patients with difficult venous access. Material and methods: This is a systematic review, where 10 scientific articles were reviewed, which were obtained from reliable sources such as scientific journals from around the world, mostly in English. Scientific articles were included that were related to the success or otherwise of peripheral venous cannulations through the use of ultrasonography guidance. Results: Of the 10 articles reviewed in this research, we can conclude that in 8 of the 10 articles reviewed it is mentioned that ultrasonography increases the success rate of peripheral catheterization, reducing the number of attempts, the time used and facilitating the insertion of larger caliber catheters, as well as in the other 2 remaining articles, it is concluded that the successful cannulations obtained in them were the same with or without the use of ultrasonography as a guide. Conclusion: The use of ultrasound guidance increases the success rate in the cannulation of peripheral intravenous lines, especially in patients with difficult venous access.
