Background Multiple studies have shown that trans-radial access (TRA) for women undergoing coronary angiography/intervention (CA/I) has a lower risk of vascular site complications as compared with trans-femoral (TFA). In patients who had previously undergone artery bypass grafting (CABG), also showed no significant difference between TRA and TFA in terms contrast amount (CA), procedure time (PT), fluoroscopy (FT). However, those mainly included men. Limited information is available on the...
We report a case of cardiac catheterization that was done entirely by accidentally accessing the inferior epigastric artery (IEA) through an unintentional puncture U-shaped portion artery. Luckily patient did not have any trauma to IEA and d/c home with no complications. A 48-year-old female history hypertension CAD S/P left circumflex stent many years ago who presented our facility persistent crescendo angina for which decision made proceed LHC. The showed significant patent so it decided...
ST segment elevation on an electrocardiogram (EKG) is alarming finding that warrants urgent coronary angiogram. Early diagnosis and intervention extremely important in the setting of Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) to prevent irreversible myocardium damage reduce mortality rate. However, it very know not all ST- Elevations (STE) EKG are due myocardial infraction. Etiologies can be divided into cardiac non-cardiac causes. Cardiac causes include aneurysm acute pericarditis while cholecystitis...
Coronary Artery Aneurysm (CAA) is defined as a dilation of more than 1.5 times normal in segment the coronary artery. While incidence CAA highest Right (RCA), it agreed that left main artery or three-vessel involvement extremely rare. Wide ranges factors have been implicated cause with atherosclerosis being most common at 50%. Congenital occurs 20-30% cases followed by connective tissue disease 10%. Blood stagnation and exposure underlying collagen make aneurysms prone to thrombosis,...
Kounis syndrome [KS] is a hypersensitivity coronary disorder induced by various allergens. It rare condition which has been reported in every age group (2-90 years), race and geographic location, its incidence to range from 7.9 19.4 per 100,000. The presentation of the detrimental effects KS on arteries ranges vasospastic angina allergic myocardial infarction.
As in any vascular access the size of guiding catheter is an operator preference. Although multiple studies showed use 5-Fr versus 6-Fr catheters for Transradial coronary intervention (TCI) have similar safety profile and can be performed safely successfully with both them, data comparing vs TCI terms fluoroscopy time, procedure time contrast amount setting ACS limited. We conducted this study to compare settings ACS.
Prasugrel is a thienopyridine that was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in combination with aspirin for reduction of thrombotic events as well stent thrombosis patients ACS who undergo PCI. This retrospective study aims to assess frequency inappropriate use prasugrel emphasize still needs more attention may result significant morbidity.
