Expert Opinion: Transradial Coronary Artery Procedures: Tips for Success (2017)
Journal Article
Sandhu, K., Butler, R., & Nolan, J. (2017). Expert Opinion: Transradial Coronary Artery Procedures: Tips for Success. Interventional Cardiology: Reviews, Research, Resources, 12(01), 18-24. https://doi.org/10.15420/icr.2017%3A2%3A2

Historically, the majority of coronary procedures have been performed via the femoral artery. However, since the inception of the transradial approach, a number of studies have confirmed that this technique is associated with a significant reduction...

Introduction
Transfemoral access (TFA) is widely used for coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The influence of operator age, gender, experience, and procedural volume on performance of femoral arterial access has not b...

25 Vascular access site and outcomes among 26,807 CTO-PCI cases from the national angioplasty audit (2017)
Journal Article
Kinnaird, T., Anderson, R., Gallagher, S., Large, A., Strange, J., Ludman, P., …Mamas, M. (2017). 25 Vascular access site and outcomes among 26,807 CTO-PCI cases from the national angioplasty audit. Heart, 103(S7), https://doi.org/10.1136/heartjnl-2017-BCIS.25

Background Use of radial access in chronic total occlusion percutaneous coronary intervention (CTO-PCI) warrants further investigation. Using the BCIS PCI database, access site choice and outcomes after CTO-PCI were assessed.

Methods Data were ana... Read More about 25 Vascular access site and outcomes among 26,807 CTO-PCI cases from the national angioplasty audit.
