Distal vs Proximal Radial Approach for Coronary Interventions

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The distal radial approach ('snuff box' / fossa radialis) has become as valuable as the 'classical' radial approach for coronary angiography and interventions. Up to now, the success of the procedures has been described in several papers, with no difference in the complication rate and characteristics of the coronarography compared to the radial approach. It was observed that patients using distal radial access had fewer postoperative radial artery occlusions. This study will compare the characteristics of coronary angiography / percutaneous coronary intervention (duration of procedure, time to obtain the vascular arterial access, amount of contrast used, time and amount of radiation, success of procedure) and patency of radial arteries 3 months after the intervention using the distal ('snuff box') and proximal ('classic') radial approach

Conditions

  • Coronary Disease
  • Vascular Diseases

Interventions

PROCEDURE

coronary angiography using distal radial artery

Patients undergoing coronary angiography with or without percutaneous coronary intervention will be catheterised using distal radial artery ('snuff box'); color doppler will be performed after 3 months to estimate eventual occlusion of the radial artery

PROCEDURE

coronary angiography using proximal radial artery

Patients undergoing coronary angiography with or without percutaneous coronary intervention will be catheterised using proximal radial artery; color doppler will be performed after 3 months to estimate eventual occlusion of the radial artery
