Abstract Even with current generation mechanical circulatory support (MCS) devices, vascular complications are still considerable risks in MCS that influence patients’ recovery and survival. Hence, efforts are made to reduce vascular trauma and obtaining safe and adequate arterial access using state-of-the-art techniques is one of the most critical aspects for optimizing the outcomes and efficiency of percutaneous MCS. Femoral arterial access remains necessary for numerous large-bore access procedures and is most commonly used for MCS, whereas percutaneous axillary artery access is typically considered an alternative for the delivery of MCS, especially in patients with severe peripheral artery disease. This article will address the access, maintenance, closure and complication management of large-bore femoral access and concisely describe alternative access routes.

Endovascular Approach

Background: Major vascular access site complications remain a challenge in the field of TAVI and are associated with higher 30 day mortality. However, outcomes following endovascular management with covered stents for such complications are not well established. Methods: We reviewed the one year data of patients who underwent TAVI at our institution with a Sapien valve by percutaneous femoral approach. Identified were patients who suffered major vascular complications according to the definitions set forth by the Valve Academic Research Consortium. We then compared the outcome of patients managed by an endovascular approach with a population whose femoral access site complications were managed surgically/endovascularly (85.7% surgically), as reported from the Partner trial. Results: A total of 16 patients experienced Major Vascular complications. TAVI was aborted on 2 patients due to access site complication. Excluded were 3 patients who had benign small ascending aortic dissections after successful valve deployment and 3 patients who were managed surgically. Ten remaining patients were managed by a pure endovascular approach with covered stents. Four of these patients suffered ilio-femoral dissection, 4 had perforation and 2 had both perforation and dissection. No significant difference was observed in pre and post procedure creatinine (1.01 vs 1.14, p=0.16) and none required dialysis within 30 days, as compared with 8.1% in Partner trial. We observed no statistically significant difference between the Partner trial cohort and our patients in 30 day all cause mortality (14.1% vs 10%, p=1), stroke rate (4.8% vs 0%, p=1), access site hematoma (22.9% vs 0%, p=0.1), retroperitoneal bleed (9.5% vs 0%, p=0.6), pseudoaneurysm (3.4% vs 0%, p=1), and gastrointestinal ischemia (1.6% vs 0%). No access site infection, stent thrombosis, or stenosis leading to limb ischemia were noted clinically at 30 day follow-up. Conclusion: Many patients with major vascular complications during TAVI can be treated with a pure endovascular approach. In our small series we observed no difference in concurrent complications when an endovascular repair can be rapidly initiated as compared to a primary surgical approach.

IntroductionThe radial artery has become the standard access site for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in stable coronary artery disease and acute coronary syndrome, because of less access site related bleeding complications. Patients with complex coronary lesions are under-represented in randomised trials comparing radial with femoral access with regard to safety and efficacy. The femoral artery is currently the most applied access site in patients with complex coronary lesions, especially when large bore guiding catheters are required. With slender technology, transradial PCI may be increasingly applied in patients with complex coronary lesions when large bore guiding catheters are mandatory and might be a safer alternative as compared with the transfemoral approach.Methods and analysisA total of 388 patients undergoing complex PCI will be randomised to radial 7 French access with Terumo Glidesheath Slender (Terumo, Japan) or femoral 7 French access as comparator. The primary outcome is the incidence of the composite end point of clinically relevant access site related bleeding and/or vascular complications requiring intervention. Procedural success and major adverse cardiovascular events up to 1 month will also be compared between both groups.Ethics and disseminationEthical approval for the study was granted by the local Ethics Committee at each recruiting center (‘Medisch Ethische Toetsing Commissie Isala Zwolle’, ‘Commissie voor medische ethiek ZNA’, ‘Comité Medische Ethiek Ziekenhuis Oost-Limburg’, ‘Comité d’éthique CHU-Charleroi-ISPPC’, ‘Commission cantonale d'éthique de la recherche CCER-Republique et Canton de Geneve’, ‘Ethik Kommission de Ärztekammer Nordrhein’ and ‘Riverside Research Ethics Committee’). The trial outcomes will be published in peer-reviewed journals of the concerned literature.Trial registration numberNCT03846752.

Abstract Background Trans-femoral approach is the most commonly used access for trans-catheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). However, in case of unsuitability, several alterative access routes have been described, namely trans-axillary, trans-aortic and trans-apical. The trans-carotid approach, rarely used, can be of particular help. Purpose To compare trans-carotid with trans-femoral access for TAVI, regarding epidemiological, clinical, procedural features and in hospital prognosis. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the data of 1272 patients treated with TAVI between January 2013 and December 2019. Patients were divided into 2 groups and compared according to the vascular approach: trans-carotid group (n=84) and trans-femoral group (n=1188). Results The trans-carotid group, representing 6.6% of all patients undergoing TAVI, had significantly more hypertension (89.9% vs 75.8%; p=0.002), history of coronary artery disease (78.6% vs 50.5%; p&lt;0.001), peripheral arteriopathy (58.7% vs 9.3%; p&lt;0.0001), ischemic stroke (24% vs 10.5%; p=0.03), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (30.8% vs 18.4%; p=0.004), surgical aortic valve replacement (12% vs 4.3%; p=0.008) and contralateral carotid endarterectomy (4% vs 0.4%; p=0.012). Average scores of LOGISTIC EUROSCORE and EUROSCORE II were significantly higher in this group (respectively 22.4 vs 15.2 and 8.3 vs 5.56; p&lt;0.0001) and patients were more frequently considered by the Heart Team as at high surgical risk (91.3% vs 68.2%; p&lt;0.0001). When performing TAVI, balloon predilatation and postdilatation were significantly less frequent in the trans-carotid group (respectively 13.3% vs 26.4%; p=0.03 and 21.7% vs 37.6%; p=0.006). However, there was no significant difference between the 2 groups concerning neither the implantation of self-expanding/balloon-expandable valves nor in the fluoroscopy time and dose-area product averages. On post-procedural echocardiographic findings, transaortic mean gradient average and the incidence of significant paravalvular leak were similar. During intra-hospital follow-up, patients in the trans-carotid group had significantly less vascular complications (9.3% vs 23%; p=0.02) and less urgent need of endovascular repair (0% vs 15.8%; p=0.013) without any impact on the need for transfusion. However, the incidence of atrial fibrillation was significantly higher (17.4% vs 9.4%; p=0.036). There was no significant difference between the two groups for the incidence of haemodynamic and neurological complications, high-degree atrioventricular block and in-hospital mortality. Conclusion According to our study, trans-carotid TAVI under local anesthesia can be feasible and safe, especially in more friable patients at higher risk. It was associated with lower incidence of vascular complications but a higher incidence of atrial fibrillation, without impact on in-hospital mortality. Randomized controlled trials are needed to establish a firm conclusion about this novel approach. Funding Acknowledgement Type of funding source: None

Abstract Aim of the work To compare transradial and transfemoral approaches in 1ry and rescue PCI for STEMI. Methods This prospective observational study was done at Alexandria University Hospital and International Cardiac Center from January 2020 to August 2020 by recruiting every patient had met our inclusion criteria (the third universal definition of MI) admitted to the coronary care unit after doing primary or rescue PCI 200 patients were involved. Exclusion criteria were (Thrombophilia and thrombocytopenia, known hematological abnormalities, and patients with known sever peripheral vascular disease. Randomization made by a computer-generated program into two equal parallel groups that were randomly assigned to either Radial access approach or femoral access approach for primary or rescue PCI. Chest pain to time of first medical contact (FMC), and the procedural time were computed. Coronary angiography and PCI procedure were described including materials used and the intra-procedure complications. MACE (Major Adverse Cardiac Events) or other hemodynamic complications were documented. All the patients were contacted for follow up to 6 months after the procedure by interviewing with the patients via telephone or the responsible physician to determine the outcomes procedure. Results The distribution of demographic variables and risk factors were similar among 200 patients in the radial and femoral groups. There had been significant differences between the groups concerning the primary end point MACE after 6 months in favor of radial group patients with p value (0.004), there was significant deference between the two studied groups concerning the total bleeding complication with higher risk in femoral group 11% compared to radial group 3% with P value (0.02). Despite the nearly equal mean time from pain to FMC (9.01 hours in radial group and 9.2 hours in femoral group), the total procedural time was significantly longer in radial group compared to femoral group with (p value 0.037). However the rate of non-culprit vessel revascularsation was significantly higher in radial group 17% compared to 6% in femoral group with p value of (0.015). In-hospital stay was significantly shorter in the radial group patients P value (0.02). Conclusion Transradial approach is safe, and effective with a high procedural success rate as the transfemoral approach but with lower risk for bleeding vascular complications and other access site complications as hematoma especially for patients where aggressive antiplatelet and anticoagulation therapy is needed, or patients who are expected to suffer from access site complications as those who need rescue PCI. Transradial approach has major additional advantages of decreasing the incidence of MACE compared to transfemoral approach. Transradial approach has another advantages of decreasing the in hospital stay.
