Brief Summary

Radial artery occlusion may occur after performance of coronary catheterization via the radial artery (transradial approach). In some cases it may be desirable to insert large (7F) catheters via the radial artery, however the impact of increased catheter size on subsequent radial artery patency is unclear. We hypothesize that radial artery occlusion following 7F catheterization is rare and occurs in \< 5% of the cases.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Normal reverse Allen test

    Radial artery patency will be studied with the reverse Allen test. This test is performed by simultaneously occluding both the radial and ulnar arteries until no pulse signal is detected with a pulse oximeter placed on the index finger. The pressure on the radial artery is then released and reappearance of the pulse signal on the oximeter is documented-signifying antegrade flow in the radial artery. This test is not associated with any reported complications or morbidity.

    Within 2 years of the initial procedure

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Antegrade flow in the radial artery by ultrasound

    Within 2 years of the initial procedure

Study Arms (1)

Study cohort

Cohort of patients who have previously undergone transradial catheterization with the use of a 7F vascular sheath
