Interventions
Drug: Topical Anesthetic
Drug: Placebo
Registration Number
NCT03501212
Lead Sponsor
Phramongkutklao College of Medicine and Hospital
Brief Summary

This study evaluate topical anaesthesia application for 30 minutes before tranradial catheterization during cardiac catheterization can reduce pain and decrease radial artery spasm
