Balloon-expandable coronary-artery stents were developed to prevent coronary restenosis after angioplasty. These devices hold vessels open at sites that have been dilated. However, it is unknown whether stenting improves long-term angiographic and clinical outcomes as compared with standard balloon
Background —Although the association of ticlopidine and aspirin has been shown to be superior anti–vitamin K agents after coronary stent implantation in low-risk patients, latter combination remained an unproven reference regimen for high-risk patients until recently. Methods Results —We randomized 350 within 6 hours receive during 30 days either 250 mg 500 mg/d (A+T group) or oral anticoagulation (A+OAC targeted at international normalized ratio 2.5 3. The primary composite end point was...
Abstract A new approach for implantation of Palmaz Schatz coronary stents is reported. We describe the technique and rationale stenting with miniaturized angioplasty equipment via radial artery. This illustrated in three patients. One patient underwent stent a saphenous vene bypass graft stenosis, second restenosis anterior descending artery after atherectomy, third balloon circumflex © 1993 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
The aim of this technical report is to demonstrate the feasibility left distal transradial approach for patients in whom radial access preferred over right coronary angiography and interventions. This procedure more convenient operator. For right-handed patient, because free use hand after procedure. In addition, technique reduces chance artery occlusion at site forearm.Coronary via anatomical snuffbox allows comfortable positioning dorsal side patient's near groin. operator can puncture...
Coronary angioplasty with 6F guiding catheters via the radial artery is associated a minimal risk for major entry site-related complications. Although incidence of occlusion (RAO) in literature approximately 30% after prolonged cannulations, little known about and its clinical consequences RAO following transradial percutaneous coronary angioplasty. In prospective study, 563 patients normal Allen test were evaluated on patency function angioplasty, by physical ultrasound examination at...
Background— Sirolimus-eluting stents markedly reduce the risk of restenosis compared with bare metal stents. However, it is not known whether there are differences in effectiveness between and sirolimus-eluting patients total coronary occlusions. Methods Results— In a prospective, randomized, single-blind, 2-center trial, we enrolled 200 occlusions: Half (n=100) were randomly assigned to receive BxVelocity half Cypher The primary end point was angiographic binary in-segment rate at 6-month...
Objective To evaluate three methods aimed at the reconstruction of brachial pressure from non-invasive finger arterial measurements as implemented in Finometer™, (FMS, Finapres Measurement Systems, Arnhem, Netherlands), successor to Finapres™ (TNO Biomedical Instrumentation, Amsterdam, Netherlands). Methods Finger (FinAP) may differ intra-brachial (BAP). Pulse shape differences are removed by applying a generalized waveform filter. Pressure level corrected correction equation using filtered...
Objective Measurement of finger artery pressure with Finapres offers noninvasive continuous blood pressure, which, however, differs from brachial pressure. Generalized waveform filtering and level correction may convert the to a waveform. An upper-arm cuff return-to-flow measurement be used calibrate on an individual basis. We tested these corrective methods as implemented in Finometer device. Methods Intrabrachial (BAP) pressures were recorded simultaneously 37 cardiac patients, aged 41–83...
To evaluate whether administration of nitroglycerin through the sheath at end a transradial procedure might preserve patency radial artery.Despite increasing acceptance approach, artery occlusion (RAO) continues to be vexing problem access and limits utility as an site in future.We conducted multicenter, prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled, operator-blinded trial enrolled 1,706 patients who underwent catheterization three experienced centers. Patients were randomized receive either...
Conventional radial access has been shown to have many advantages over the transfemoral approach. The risk of potential artery occlusion and subsequent hand ischaemia can be reduced further by accessing vessel distally at anatomical snuffbox, allowing maintenance antegrade flow superficial palmar arch branch. Additional distal in comparison conventional approach wrist include fewer puncture-site complications faster post-procedural haemostasis as is very superficial. Furthermore, it provides...
Abstract Radial artery spasm is a frequent complication of the transradial approach for coronary angiography and angioplasty. Recently, we have been able to quantify using automatic pullback device. The objective this study was assess efficacy an intra‐arterial vasodilating cocktail in reducing incidence severity radial spasm. A hundred patients undergoing procedures via were divided into two groups 50 each. Patients group received (5 mg verapamil plus 200 μg nitroglycerine 10 ml normal...
To report the incidence and predictors of moderate/severe radial artery spasm (RAS) in patients undergoing cardiovascular percutaneous procedures through a transradial approach (TRA) centers with TRA expertise.Data regarding actual rate clinically meaningful RAS are limited due to difference study designs operator expertise.The registry, an international (14 from Argentina, Chile, India, Indonesia, Macedonia, The Netherlands United States America) registry that included 1,868 (63.5%...
The 6 Fr Glidesheath Slender (GSS6Fr) is a recently developed thin-walled radial sheath with an outer diameter (OD) that smaller than the OD of standard sheaths. purpose this trial was to clarify whether use new slender would result in similar rates RAO 5 unselected patients undergoing transradial (TR) coronary angiography and/or intervention, and assess relative importance size haemostasis protocol on rate RAO.We conducted randomised, multicentre, non-inferiority comparing GSS6Fr against...
Abstract This study tested the safety and feasibility of coronary angioplasty on an outpatient basis. The purpose this approach includes cost‐effectiveness patient comfort. Six hundred forty‐four patients were randomized to either transradial or transfemoral PTCA using 6 Fr equipment. Patients triaged management based a predefined set predictors adverse outcome in first 24 hr after initially successful angioplasty. Three seventy‐five (58%) discharged 4–6 PTCA; 42% stayed hospital overnight....
