Prevention of Radial Artery Occlusion After Trans-radial Cardiac Catheterization
Not Applicable
- Conditions
- CARDIAC CATHETRIZATION
- Registration Number
- NCT03182530
- Lead Sponsor
- Assiut University
- Brief Summary
Data from literature: transradial access failure sometimes occurs due to inability to cannulate the radial artery due to radial artery spasm1 causing severe difficulties in manipulation of the guide wires and catheters along the tortuous pathways of the arteries. both mechanical stimuli and circulating catecholamines through activation of α1-adrenoreceptors, causing smooth muscle cell contraction \& radial artery spasm
