Study Overview
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the preference of patients regarding the vascular access site in future coronary procedures. We hypothesize that patients prefer the lesser invasive procedure via radial access.
Detailed Description
Rationale: To explore patient preference for vascular access site in percutaneous coronary procedures, by assessing the perceived importance of benefits and risks of both transradial access and transfemoral access. In addition, direct preference for vascular access and preference for shared decision-making were evaluated.
Objective: To investigate the patient preference of vascular access -transradial versus transfemoral- in future percutaneous coronary procedures, by use of the Best-Worst Scaling.
Study design: Single-center, prospective, observational registry
Study population: A consecutive series of patients, who between June and August 2014, underwent elective coronary procedures at Thoraxcentrum Twente in Enschede.
Intervention: All subjects will receive a questionnaire containing basic baseline questions and a best-worst scaling scenario in which they were asked to indicate the most and least desirable characteristics of the vascular access approach.
