Circulation: Cardiovascular Interventions, 11(11), https://doi.org/10.1161/circinterventions.118.006824

Background: There are limited data on outcomes of patients with previous CABG presenting with NSTEMI undergoing PCI. We compare clinical characteristics and outcomes in NSTEMI patients undergoing PCI with or without prior CABG surgery in a national c...

Background

We sought to systematically review the available literature on limb dysfunction after transradial or transfemoral cardiac catheterization.

Methods & Results
MEDLINE and EMBASE were searched for studies evaluating any transradial or... Read More about Incidence and clinical course of limb dysfunction post cardiac catheterization: a systematic review.

Health economic analysis of access site practice in England during changes in practice: Insights from the British Cardiovascular Interventional Society (2018)
Journal Article

Health economic analysis of access site practice in England during changes in practice: Insights from the British Cardiovascular Interventional Society. Circulation: Cardiovascular Quality and Outcomes, 11(5), https://doi.org/10.1161/circoutcomes.117.004482

Background: Transradial access (TRA) for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is associated with a reduced risk of mortality compared with transfemoral access, access site–related bleeding complications, and shorter length of stay. The budget imp... Read More about Health economic analysis of access site practice in England during changes in practice: Insights from the British Cardiovascular Interventional Society.

Accelerated patent haemostasis using a procoagulant disk: a protocol designed to minimise the risk of radial artery occlusion following cardiac catheterisation (2018)
Journal Article

Accelerated patent haemostasis using a procoagulant disk: a protocol designed to minimise the risk of radial artery occlusion following cardiac catheterisation. Cardiovascular Revascularization Medicine, 20(2), 137-142. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.carrev.2018.03.026

Purpose
Radial artery occlusion flowing cardiac catheterisation has been linked to flow reduction and prolonged compression. We investigate whether these factors can be optimised following transradial cardiac catheterisation by using an accelerated...

This study aimed to examine the 30-day unplanned readmissions rate, predictors of readmission, causes of readmissions, and clinical impact of readmissions after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Background
Unplanned rehospital... Read More about Burden of 30-day readmissions after PCI in 824,747 patients in the USA: predictors, causes and cost. Insights from the Nationwide Readmission Database.

The effect of pre-procedure sublingual nitroglycerin on radial artery diameter and Allen’s test outcome - relevance to transradial catheterization (2018)
Journal Article
Chong, A., Lo, T., George, S., Ratib, K., Mamas, M., & Nolan, J. (2018). The effect of pre-procedure sublingual nitroglycerin on radial artery diameter and Allen’s test outcome - relevance to transradial catheterization. Cardiovascular Revascularization Medicine, 19(2), 163-167. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.carrev.2017.07.016

Background
The radial artery is increasingly used for cardiac procedures, but is a relatively small vessel that is prone to spasm when instrumented. Intra-arterial nitroglycerine has been shown to reduce radial spasm but first requires arterial acce...
