NCT03794687

Brief Summary

The study team aims to perform a prospective observational case series of one hundred consecutive distal radial artery heart catheterizations to evaluate the safety and feasibility of distal radial access. Distal radial artery access has evolved in the past few years as an alternative to the standard radial artery access for coronary angiography and interventions. However, the available data on the distal radial artery access for coronary angiography and interventions is limited to case reports and small retrospective case series. To date, no prospective randomized data is available. Therefore, the investigators aim to perform a prospective observational case series of one hundred sequential left heart catheterizations performed via distal radial artery to evaluate the safety and feasibility of the distal radial artery access.

Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Data of up to one hundred consecutive patients undergoing left heart catheterization via the distal radial artery (dorsal aspect of the hand at the base of the thumb) will be collected.

You may qualify if:

  • Patients scheduled to undergo diagnostic left heart catheterization with or without percutaneous coronary intervention.

You may not qualify if:

  • Hemodynamically unstable (on vasopressor continuous infusion, on mechanical support) patients.
  • Patients undergoing emergent left heart catheterization for ST-elevation myocardial infarction.
  • Full oral anticoagulation defined as use of a direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) within 24 hours or an INR over 2.0 the day of the procedure.
  • Active bleeding or known history of blood dyscrasia or bleeding diathesis.
  • History of ipsilateral arteriovenous fistula or vascular surgical intervention.
  • Patients unable to undergo distal radial artery access due to anatomical deformities, limited mobility, or other.
