The many radial access learning curves
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions"
DOI: 10.1002/ccd.27046
Abstract: The radial approach to endovascular procedures has a series of learning curves: diagnostic heart catheterization, low‐risk settings and “straightforward” percutaneous coronary intervention, high‐risk settings, and complex coronary intervention, and peripheral vascular angiography and intervention. For… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ccd.29358
Abstract: • In radial access percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for acute coronary syndromes, study-level metaanalysis suggests no long-term benefit of bivalirudin over heparin. • Individual patient data meta-analysis, however, suggests 28% lower cardiac mortality, 43% fewer… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/hpc.0000000000000304
Abstract: Background: Distal trans-radial access (dTRA) is a novel technique of arterial cannulation in coronary interventions. The comparative efficacy of dTRA and conventional trans-radial access (TRA) in attenuating peri-procedural complications is unknown. Methods: Embase and PubMed/MEDLINE… read more here.
