Abstract:
Objective To investigate the value of transradial approach in intracoronary stent implantation Methods 100 patients with angina pectoris were divided as transradial and femoral groups (each 50), both results of procedural characteristics and in hospital clinical outcome after stenting were compared Results There were no statistically significant difference between the two groups for baseline, median time of the procedure, median time to coronary access, number of catheters used/cases, first success rate of stent implanted in, and major events poststenting Local complications (recurent bleeding or small haematoma), average hospitalization time after stenting, patient satisfaction and choice in radial group were significantly better than in femoral group, but median time arterial access and artery spasm were significantly higher in radial group Conclusion Transradial approach can be chosen as an alternative to transfemoral approach in coronary stent implantation and was preferable in reducing local complications and improving patient's comfort
