- Brief Summary
This is a phase IV, prospective, open label, randomized-controlled study that will compare radial access with state-of-the-art femoral access in patients without ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction undergoing cardiac catheterization. Subjects will be randomized 1:1 into 2 treatment groups: radial access and state-of-the-art femoral access. Randomization will be performed in blocks of 50 per site. Similarly, a second sub-randomization will be performed in the femoral access group into use of 18 vs 21 gauge needles, also in a 1:1 fashion.

Group Intervention Description Radial access Radial Access Radial access for cardiac catheterization. Radial access will be performed using ultrasound guidance and a micropuncture needle or catheter-over-needle system, as per the local standard of care. State-of-the-art femoral access State-of-the-art femoral access with 21 gauge needle Femoral access for cardiac catheterization. Femoral access will be obtained using state-of-the-art techniques (ultrasound and fluoroscopic guidance for arterial puncture, immediate femoral angiography after obtaining access and use of a vascular closure device whenever possible). State-of-the-art femoral access State-of-the-art femoral access with 18 gauge needle Femoral access for cardiac catheterization. Femoral access will be obtained using state-of-the-art techniques (ultrasound and fluoroscopic guidance for arterial puncture, immediate femoral angiography after obtaining access and use of a vascular closure device whenever possible).
