Why Do Transradial Access? Improve outcomes Improve procedural success? Short-term Long-term Decrease complications? Decrease costs? Improve patient satisfaction?
Why Do Transradial Access? Background Transradial access originally initiated because of bleeding associated with PCI/Stenting Radial artery is superficial Radial artery is easily compressible No critical structures in proximity Most patients have dual arterial supply to hand

CONCLUSIONS Radial PCI….is infrequently used…but is associated with a rate of procedural success similar to the femoral approach with lower rates of bleeding and vascular complications These findings were present even among patients at high risk  for PCI-related complications such as elderly patients, women  and patients with ACS. These data, in the context of prior clinical trials, suggest that wider adoption of radial PCI in clinical practice may improve the safety of PCI Rao et al.  J. Am. Coll. Cardiol.

PREVAIL STUDY 86% Reduction in clinical and procedural adjusted risk of in-hospital death or infarction/reinfarction in patients undergoing PCI by the radial approach (based on intention-to-treat) Confirmed by multivariate analysis and propensity adjustment Highest baseline risk patients (ACS,STEMI) contributed mostly to the outcome benefit by the radial approach suggests that baseline bias is less relevant in this study
BLEEDING/TRANSFUSION AND ADVERSE OUTCOMES IN PCI Potential Mechanisms Hemodynamic compromise Induction of hyperadrenergic state Induction of inflammatory state Cessation of anti-thrombotic/anti-platelet agents Altered characteristics of older banked blood such as reduced O2 delivery, NO depletion, or stimulation of vasoconstriction
TRANS RADIAL CATHETERIZATION Complications Radial artery occlusion 1-5% (heparin dose and hemodynamic monitoring) of no consequence  Severe hematoma - very rare Compartment syndrome - very rare –unsuspected guidewire perforation Hand ischemia (should not occur with normal Allen Test)
Why Do Transradial Access? Improve outcomes - Yes Improve procedural success - Yes Short-term Long-term Decrease complications – Yes Primarily access site bleeding Decrease transfusion requirement Decrease costs - Yes Improve patient satisfaction - Yes Radial Artery Access   Improving Outcomes in PCI
TRANSRADIAL ACCESS Dr. L. Yogi Berra “ Just remember, it’s not over ‘til it’s over” The PCI is not over with the successful delivery of the stent The  successful  PCI is over when the patient leaves the hospital with a good angiographic result and no early or  late  complication
TRANSRADIAL ACCESS Just remember, “it’s not over until the  fat lady (your patient) sings” But is she singing your praises or the “blues”  The “black and blues”  Try radial access.  Try it you’ll like it! Your patients will love it!!!

    CONCLUSIONS Radial PCI….isinfrequently used…but is associated with a rate of procedural success similar to the femoral approach with lower rates of bleeding and vascular complications These findings were present even among patients at high risk for PCI-related complications such as elderly patients, women and patients with ACS. These data, in the context of prior clinical trials, suggest that wider adoption of radial PCI in clinical practice may improve the safety of PCI Rao et al. J. Am. Coll. Cardiol.

    PREVAIL STUDY 86%Reduction in clinical and procedural adjusted risk of in-hospital death or infarction/reinfarction in patients undergoing PCI by the radial approach (based on intention-to-treat) Confirmed by multivariate analysis and propensity adjustment Highest baseline risk patients (ACS,STEMI) contributed mostly to the outcome benefit by the radial approach suggests that baseline bias is less relevant in this study

    BLEEDING/TRANSFUSION AND ADVERSEOUTCOMES IN PCI Potential Mechanisms Hemodynamic compromise Induction of hyperadrenergic state Induction of inflammatory state Cessation of anti-thrombotic/anti-platelet agents Altered characteristics of older banked blood such as reduced O2 delivery, NO depletion, or stimulation of vasoconstriction

    TRANS RADIAL CATHETERIZATIONComplications Radial artery occlusion 1-5% (heparin dose and hemodynamic monitoring) of no consequence Severe hematoma - very rare Compartment syndrome - very rare –unsuspected guidewire perforation Hand ischemia (should not occur with normal Allen Test)

    Why Do TransradialAccess? Improve outcomes - Yes Improve procedural success - Yes Short-term Long-term Decrease complications – Yes Primarily access site bleeding Decrease transfusion requirement Decrease costs - Yes Improve patient satisfaction - Yes Radial Artery Access Improving Outcomes in PCI

    TRANSRADIAL ACCESS Dr.L. Yogi Berra “ Just remember, it’s not over ‘til it’s over” The PCI is not over with the successful delivery of the stent The successful PCI is over when the patient leaves the hospital with a good angiographic result and no early or late complication

    TRANSRADIAL ACCESS Justremember, “it’s not over until the fat lady (your patient) sings” But is she singing your praises or the “blues” The “black and blues” Try radial access. Try it you’ll like it! Your patients will love it!!!
