Early experience with ultrasound guided distal trans-radial access in the anatomical snuffbox in coronary angiography and intervention. Objective: We aimed to demonstrate the feasibility and safety of the ultrasound guided distal trans-radial coronary angiography and intervention. Methods: Patients assigned to one operator program underwent diagnostic or procedural intervention through distal trans-radial approach in the anatomical snuffbox between January 2018 and May 2018. All of patients had palpable artery in their distal radial artery. The operator did the coronary procedure via distal radial access at anatomical snuffbox. When the pulse was weak or the target artery was very small, the operator punctured under ultrasound guidance (V-scan with dual probe, GE heathcare, USA) Results: 56 patients were enrolled. Mean age of patients was 65.1 years old and 68% were male. About 70% of patients were presented with stable angina feature. In diagnostic procedure, 4F (3, 5.6%) or 5F (29, 54.7%) sheath was used and we did coronary intervention via 6F (21, 39.6%) Sheath. Ultrasound guided puncture was done for 33 patients (58.9%). Overall Success rate of distal trans-radial angiography and intervention was 94.6% (3 failed cases). Success rate of ultrasound guided procedure was 97% (only 1 failed case). Left distal radial puncture was done for 18 patients (33.9%). 16% of patients had chronic kidney disease, especially end stage renal disease (11%) to preserve radial artery which was potential candidate of arteriovenous fistulae for dialysis. There was no BARC type 2-5 bleeding in hospital stay and follow up at out-patient clinic. Conclusion: Ultra sound guided distal radial approach is feasible and safe as a good alternative technique for coronary angiography and interventions.

Abstract Background The presence of any benefits associated with radial or femoral access among patients undergoing coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) is still debated. Purpose Our aim is to provide a comprehensive quantitative appraisal of the effects of access site on the risks of stroke, myocardial infarction, and major bleeding in patients undergoing coronary angiography with or without PCI. Methods In January 2020, we searched PubMed, Embase, and meeting abstracts for randomized trials comparing radial versus femoral access for coronary angiography with or without subsequent PCI. Odds ratios (OR) were used as metric of choice for treatment effects with random-effects models. Co-primary efficacy endpoints were stroke and myocardial infarction. Primary safety endpoint was major bleeding. Secondary endpoints were all cause mortality and vascular complications. Heterogeneity was assessed with the I-squared index. This study is registered with PROSPERO. Results We identified 31 trials, including 30,414 patients. Risks of stroke (OR 1.11, 95% CI 0.76–1.64, I2=0%) and myocardial infarction (OR 0.90, 95% CI 0.79–1.03, I2=0%) were comparable between radial and femoral access. Radial access was associated with a reduction for the risk of major bleeding as compared to femoral access (OR 0.53, 95% CI 0.42–0.67, I2=3.3%) with a number needed to treat of 92. Findings were consistent regardless clinical features and procedure performed, with the only exception of an increased benefit of the radial access in patients with chronic coronary syndrome (p forinteraction=0.005). The risk for all-cause mortality (OR 0.73, 95% CI 0.61–0.89, I2=0%) and vascular complication (OR 0.32, 95% CI 0.23–0.44, I2=16.7%) was significantly lower in the radial compared to femoral access group. Conclusions In patients undergoing coronary angiography with or without PCI, radial compared to femoral access did not reduce the risk of stroke and myocardial infarction, with no impact on the effect estimates of clinical presentation, age, gender, or subsequent PCI. Whereas, radial access is associated with a significant risk reduction of major bleeding as compared to femoral access. The benefit favoring radial access is of important clinical relevance in view of the relatively low number needed to treat to prevent a major bleeding and the significant impact on mortality.

Introduction: Radial artery access has been adopted widely around the world as standard best practice for coronary angiography with or without percutaneous coronary intervention. Radial artery access offers benefits in regard to reduced major bleeding, reduced hospital stay, fewer vascular complications, similar procedural times, patient preference and a mortality benefit in acute coronary syndrome/STEMI management. Despite transradial access being best practice, there has been a slow uptake of this technique amongst some cardiologists/interventionalists, particularly in the USA. This may partially be attributed to uncertainties regarding the learning curve and concerns regarding delaying treatment in STEMI if radial access fails. Methods: Using the data from the Coronary Angiography Database Of South Australia registry (CADOSA), we sought to determine the radial access failure rates for acute cases during transition from routine femoral access to routine radial access from 2012 to 2016, a period when the greatest transition in practice occurred. Data regarding initial vascular access, success or failure, and subsequent vascular access was prospectively recorded for all cases. Operators with at least a 70% rate of initial radial access were deemed to be established radial operators and acted as controls for operators transitioning from femoral access (at least 70% of cases) to radial access during the study period. Cases were further classified as elective, urgent (eg inpatient ACS) or emergency (eg STEMI). Results: There were 23 operators with sufficient volumes, responsible for 20,073 cath lab visits during the 5 year period studied. The overall radial access rate increased from 57% in 2012 to 78% in 2016. For operators transitioning from a default femoral access (76% of case) to a default radial access (75% of cases), the radial access failure rate for urgent and emergency cases was 3.7%, compared to 3.5% for experienced radial operators over the same period. Conclusion: Despite strong evidence of benefit for radial access angiography and intervention, compared to femoral access, some operators remain reluctant to transition. Utilising the CADOSA database, we observed a safe transition from femoral to radial access without an increased risk of access site failure for acute cases. Transition from femoral to radial access can be made safely by a range of clinicians managing acute cases.

Abstract Radial access has great advantages in terms of the frequency of complications, but it has one specific complication - radial artery occlusion (RAO). This complication often does not manifest itself in any way; however, it limits the use of access for the future interventions. Aim To compare methods of short and traditional hemostasis and to identify the main predictors of RAO after radial access. Materials and methods During the period from 2012 to 2018, 2000 patients were included in the study, which consisted of two parts: prospective - 1000 patients who underwent coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stable coronary artery disease, and retrospective part of the study, which included 1000 patients admitted for PCI from other clinics. In a prospective study, patients were divided into two groups: after coronary angiography and PCI, respectively (n=500 in the coronary angiography group and n=500 in the PCI group), and then randomized. Hemostatic bandages in the first group of patients (n=250) were removed after 12–24 hours, in the second group (n=250) - after 4±1 hours. When the occlusion of the radial artery was detected, all patients underwent an hour-long compression of the ipsilateral ulnar artery to recanalize acute RAO. Results The frequency of RAO in the retrospective part of the study was 21.8%. The frequency of RAO in the prospective part of the study was 10.2% with a traditional time hemostasis and 1.4% with a short-time compression (P<0.001). Predictors of the RAO are illustrated in table 1. Predictors of bleeding were PCI (OR 0.12, 95% CI 0.01–0.67, P=0.05) and weight (OR 1.09, 95% CI 1.02–1.18, P=0.01). Table 1. Predictors of RAO Variables Odds ratio 95% Confidential interval Significance, P Traditional-time hemostasis 8.78 4.2–21.5 <0.001 Diabetes mellitus+smoking 18.1 12.7–26.7 <0.001 Diabetes mellitus 0.45 0.25–0.83 0.009 Body mass index 0.95 0.91–0.99 0.02 Male 1.75 1.01–3.18 0.05 Protein C 0,86 0,75–0,96 0,01 Conclusion Careful examination of the patient for detecting RAO before and after interventions is essential. Short hemostasis with compression of the ipsilateral ulnar artery reduce the frequency of RAO. For short-time hemostasis, special attention should be paid to patients after PCI and with low BMI, as far as these factors are associated with a greater risk of bleeding after removal of the compression bandage.
