While failure rates for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) are equally low when using the left or right radial artery, radial-access procedures from the right side are associated with longer ...

The learning curve for performing transradial coronary procedures via left radial access is shorter than that for right radial access, allowing inexperienced practitioners to more quickly achieve ...

LOS ANGELES — The safety advantage that has already coaxed U.S. interventional cardiologists to switch many of their routine catheterizations from femoral-artery entry in the groin to a radial-artery ...

A transradial approach (TRA) for cerebral angiography was less effective than the transfemoral route in achieving an accurate diagnostic success rate. Study investigator, Wei Ni, MD, Huashan Hospital, ...

The radial approach for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) reduces vascular access site complications when compared with the femoral approach and results in similar success rates. These findings ...

However, the transradial approach for peripheral intervention has been limited by a lack of purpose-built devices that fulfill the needs of these procedures. 2-5 Many available options are too short ...
