Comparison of one-catheter strategy versus conventional two-catheter strategy on the volume of radiological contrast and diagnostic coronary catheterization performance by transradial access: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials

Arch. cardiol. Méx; 90 (4), 2020
Abstract Background: One-catheter strategy, based in multipurpose catheters, allows exploring both coronary arteries with a single catheter. This strategy could simplify coronary catheterization and reduce the volume of contrast administration, by reducing radial spasm. To date, observational studies sh...

Abordaje radial distal izquierdo a través de la tabaquera anatómica para la realización de angiografía coronaria

Rev. colomb. cardiol; 27 (5), 2020
Resumen Objetivo: describir la experiencia de un servicio en angiografía coronaria en cuanto al abordaje radial distal izquierdo a través de la tabaquera anatómica. Material y método: de abril a agosto de 2018 se asignaron 40 pacientes a angiografía coronaria por vía radial izquierda distal a t...

Rama muscular hipertrófica de la arteria recurrente radial (Cuerda de Henry) en relación con el ramo profundo del nervio radial: reporte de caso

Int. j. morphol; 38 (4), 2020
La arteria recurrente radial nace en el extremo proximal de la arteria radial y desde ahí asciende oblicuamente para anastomosarse con la arteria colateral radial, entregando en ese trayecto una serie de ramas para los músculos cercanos. Dicha arteria junto con sus ramas fueron descritas (por su import...

Arco palmar superficial: redefiniendo un clásico

Int. j. morphol; 38 (3), 2020
El arco palmar superficial (APS) resulta de la unión de la arteria ulnar y la rama palmar superficial de la arteria radial. Por su convexidad nacen las arterias digitales comunes. Esta descripción es la única que distintos autores han tomado como válida, por lo que se espera encontrarla durante la di...

Fractura intravascular de un catéter arterial: una complicación poco común pero real

Rev. chil. anest; 49 (6), 2020
Arterial catheterization is a common procedure performed for invasive blood pressure as well as cardiac output monitoring and blood sampling for analysis. The fracture or embolization of arterial catheters are rare but serious complications, and may cause vascular thrombosis or occlusion. Ultrasound can ...

Comparison of sharp dissection, electrocautery, and ultrasonic activated scalpel with regard to endothelial damage, preparation time, and postoperative bleeding during radial artery harvesting

Abstract Objective: To examine the effects of classical technique, electrocautery, and ultrasonic dissection on endothelial integrity, function, and preparation time for harvesting the radial artery (RA) during coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Methods: Forty-five patients who underwent isolated ...

Risk factors and temporal trends for vascular access-related complications in coronary procedures: evolving from femoral to radial approach

Arch. cardiol. Méx; 89 (4), 2019
Abstract Introduction: Radial access is the gold standard for ST-elevation myocardial infarction; nevertheless, there is scarce information in Mexico. Objectives: The objectives of this study were to describe the differences in radiation exposure, intervention time, fluoroscopy time, complications and ...

Impact of One-Catheter Strategy with TIG I Catheter on Coronary Catheterization Performance and Economic Costs

Arq. bras. cardiol; 113 (5), 2019
Abstract Background: Coronary angiography with two catheters is the traditional strategy for diagnostic coronary procedures. TIG I catheter permits to cannulate both coronary arteries, avoiding exchanging catheters during coronary angiography by transradial access. Objective: The aim of this study is t...

Why use the radial artery? the saphenous vein is the second graft of choice for cabg in Brazil

Abstract The saphenous vein (SV) is the most commonly used conduit for coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) and the second conduit of choice in Brazil and many other countries. The radial artery (RA) is suggested, by some, to be superior to SV grafts, although its use in the USA declined over a 10 year ...
