Brief Summary
The distal transradial approach (dTRA) via the anatomical snuffbox is hypothesized to be more beneficial than the conventional transradial access (cTRA) in patients undergoing coronary procedures. This prospective single-center randomized trial was designed to investigate the safety, efficacy, and various ultrasound parameters of dTRA.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
The primary composite endpoint consisted of rate of access crossover, rate of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and rate of access-related vascular complications.
Access crossover from unsuccessful random arterial access (if the initial access point fails) to another one. Access-related complications after the procedure measured with Doppler Ultrasound (included radial artery occlusion, significant hematoma (EASY classification grade III-V), arteriovenous fistula, pseudoaneurysm, perforation and spasm). MACE definied as myocardial infarction, stroke, urgent revascularization, all-cause death.
up to 24 hours
Secondary Outcomes (4)
efficacy endpoint: rate of access crossover
during the procedure index
safety endpoint: patients' discomfort evaluated during access performance
during the procedure
efficacy endpoint: duration of access performance
during the procedure index
safety endpoint: access-site vascular complications
after 24 hours post procedure
Other Outcomes (3)
Access-time
during procedure
radial artery size
before the procedure, 24 hours and 60 days after the procedure
radial artery velocity
before the procedure, 24 hours and 60 days after the procedure

Interventions
coronary procedure (coronary angiography and/or coronary angioplasty) by the distal radial artery in the anatomical snuffbox area
coronary procedure (coronary angiography and/or coronary angioplasty) by the forearm radial artery in the anatomical snuffbox area
