Brief Summary

Introduction: The distal radial technique which consists of canalizing the radial artery through the anatomical snuffbox has recently emerged as an alternative arterial intervention for diagnostic and therapeutic coronary catheterization. Aims: To evaluate the feasibility and safety of the distal transradial approach (dTRA) as a default route for coronary angiography (CAG) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Incidence of complications associated with the procedure

    Complications associated with the procedure: haematoma, ecchymosis, bleeding, arterial dissection, thrombosis, radial artery occlusion.

    24 hours

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Unsuccessful distal radial artery procedure

    24 hours

Study Arms (1)

Distal Radial Approach

Distal transradial access will be performed on patients above 18 years of age, undergoing diagnostic and/or therapeutic coronary angiography, with palpable pulse at the level of the radial fossa, and these patients will be also subjected to the following tests: Allen maneuver and Barbeau maneuver; a positive Allen test was indication to perform the transradial access, while a type D Barbeau test will be a contraindication for it.

Procedure: Distal Transradial Access

Interventions

The distal radial artery needs to be punctured with specialized equipment with a 20, 21 or 22-gauge puncture needle, using a transfixion or anterior wall technique. A 0.025 in, 46 cm guide was introduced in the system, followed by the introduction of the 5 Fr, 6 Fr, 7Fr hydrophilic arterial sheath or 5 Fr, 6 Fr or 7 Fr Glidesheath Slender introducer (TerumoIS, Tokyo, Japan), after a small incision in the skin.
