Radial artery use in bypass grafting does not change digital blood flow or hand function.
"If the answer is saphenous veins, they might want to seek a surgeon with experience using the
radial artery. The decision could impact the likelihood of having complications after surgery, as well as surviving 10 years or longer."
Radial artery approach for coronary intervention has shown to reduce access site complications; early ambulation and reduced hospital stay.
Radial artery spasm (RAS) is a brief and abrupt contraction of
radial artery generally detected clinically and by angiographic method amid cardiac catheterization.
The superficial palmar branch of the
radial artery flap is an ideal flap for flow-through arterial reconstruction.
After necessary calibrations of the pressure line, when the catheter guided by radial sheath was in the
radial artery, the
radial artery pressure (RBP) was recorded.
During a further pullback of the system, the still inflated balloon became stuck again in the small and vasospastic
radial artery. The operator was unable to pull or push the balloon in any direction and was unable to wedge the balloon into the 6F radial sheath.
After local subcutaneous anesthesia, the
radial artery was punctured with a 20 gauge needle.
Iatrogenic (cannulation), penetrating trauma, vascular tumors, connective tissue diseases, and Behget's disease (BD) are the main etiological factors for true
radial artery aneurysms (RAA).
It is a transparent band to assist hemostasis of the
radial artery after a transradial procedure.
Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of ultrasound (US) guided
radial artery cannulation as compared to the blind insertion of arterial line in intensive care unit of a tertiary care center.
Bradycardia as a complication of cardiac catheterization is described through both the femoral and
radial artery access approaches.
