Abstract:
Objective To investigate the risk factors and their prevention and treatment approaches for occurring radial artery spasm (RAS) during the brain digital subtraction angiography (DSA) with transradial catheterization in patients with ischemic cerebrovascular disease.Methods The patients who underwent DSA of transradial approach because of ischemic cerebrovascular disease were enrolled.Their clinical data,surgical complications,and radial artery spasm were collected.The data of occurring RAS or not during DSA of transradial approach in patients were compared.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors for occurring RAS during DSA of transradial approach.Results A total of 100 patients with ischemic cerebrovascular disease who underwent DSA of transradial approach (74 ischemic stroke,26 transient ischemic attack) were enrolled,of which 21 (21％) had RAS.Of the 21 patients with RAS,4 suspended their operations and completed their DSA after spasm relief; another 17 were treated with intrathecal cocktail (heparin 2500 U,nitroglycerin 0.5 mg,verapamil 1.25 mg) and completed their DSA after spasm relief.There were significant differences in the proportions of radial artery diameter (1.89 ±0.28 mm vs.2.12 ± 0.17 mm; t =1.582,P =0.041),duration of operation (12.3 ± 3.1 min vs.9.8 ±2.7 min; t =1.264,P =0.038),and radial artery diameter ＞2 mm (9.52％ vs.65.82％ ;x2 =9.624,P =0.002),radial artery anatomy variation (23.81％ vs.0.27％; x2 =14.185,P＜ 0.001),and the first successful puncture (42.86％ vs.78.48 ％ ;x2 =5.335,P =0.021) in patients between RAS group and the non-RAS group.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the radial artery anatomy variation (odds ratio [OR] 1.940,95 ％ confidence interval [CI] 1.372-2.241; P=0.023) was an independent risk factor for the occurrence of RAS.Radial artery diameter ＞2 mm (OR 0.752,95％ CI 0.352-0.847;P=0.043) and the first successful puncture (OR 0.843,95％ CI 0.367-0.941; P=0.045) were the independent protective factors for RAS.Conclusions RAS is a common complication of DSA of transradial approach.Repeated puncture,radial artery diameter,and radial artery anatomy variation are its most important influencing factors.
