Carotid Arteries Stenting Complications: Transradial Approach Versus Transfemoral

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Stroke
Carotid Stenosis
Ischemic Attack
Carotid Atherosclerosis
Bleeding
Interventions
Procedure: Transfemoral carotid artery stenting
Procedure: Transradial carotid artery stenting
Registration Number
NCT02722720
Lead Sponsor
Meshalkin Research Institute of Pathology of Circulation
Brief Summary

The aim is to compare the safety of using transfemoral and transradial approach in patient undergoing carotid arteries stenting.

Detailed Description

The use of transradial approach in carotid arteries stenting can significantly decrease the amount of adverse events associated with transfemoral approach such as bleeding or hematoma. Otherwise providing transradial approach is fraught with technical difficulties of common carotid artery canulation that can result in embolic complications. Taking into account the absence of studies in this area of medicine, providing investigation evaluating parameters of safety for both methodics is very actual.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Cerebral embolismduring 24 hours after carotid artery stenting

Amount of intraoperative micro- and macroembolic complications evaluated as an occurence of new ipsilateral ischemic lesions estimated due to brain MRI data.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Neurocognitive disordersbefore and 30 days after carotid artery stenting

Weschler Test of Adult Reading (WTAR)

Device successintraoperative

Device success is defined as achievement of a final residual diameter stenosis 20% during the initial procedure.

Lesion successintraoperative

Lesion success, defined as achievement of a final residual diameter stenosis 20% with use of any percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) approach.

Cerebral embolismintraoperative

Amount of intraoperative microembolic signals revealed by transcranial ultrasound Doppler examination.

MACCEduring 30 days after carotid artery stenting

Major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) including: including: All-cause mortality, Myocardial infarction, Stent thrombosis, Clinically indicated Target lesion revascularization, Any target lesion revascularization, Any target vessel revascularization.

Operative access complicationsintraoperative/ 1 day after operation

Bleeding, aneurisms, large hematomas, atrioventricular fistula

Fluoroscopic timeintraoperative
In-hospital procedure successWithin 5-day hospitalization

Procedure success is defined as achievement of a final residual diameter stenosis 20% together with the absence of any in-hospital major adverse cardiac event.
