Distal versus conventional radial access for coronary angiography and intervention (DISCO RADIAL)
13 Jun 2022
The DISCO RADIAL trial sought to assess the efficacy and safety of distal radial access (DRA) compared with conventional transradial access (TRA) with systematic implementation of best prevention methods for the reduction of radial artery occlusion (RAO).

DIStal vs. COnventional RADIAL access for coronary angiography and intervention - the DISCO Radial Trial
18 May 2022 – From EuroPCR 2022
David Rodrigues interviews Adel Aminian on the results from the DISCO Radial trial. This is the first large-scale multicenter randomized evidence comparing DRA to TRA in patients scheduled for coronary angiography or PCI with respect to the incidence of RAO at discharge.
Transradial approach, from complex PCI to peripheral intervention
19 May 2022 – From EUROPCR 2022
Watch this session if you want to demonstrate how to optimise challenging coronary and peripheral cases using dedicated devices in transradial approach, to appreciate the value of transradial approach for complex PCI and carotid artery stenting and to acknowledge Ultimaster DES results in high bleeding risk patient...
Dealing with complex and high-risk interventions
18 May 2022 – From EuroPCR 2022
Thanks to these seven clinical cases, you will be able to learn how to manage risky and complex interventions, including a case of complex triple bifurcation lesions, a high-risk PCI case and a successful kissing balloon technique in transradial PCI.
Celebrating 30 years of transradial artery access!
17 May 2022
Thirty years ago, the interventional cardiology field was transformed with the emergence of a new access site – the radial artery was used for coronary angioplasty and stent implantation for the first time on 14 August 1992.

Long-term clinical impact of contrast-associated acute kidney injury following PCI: an ADAPT-DES sub-study
21 Apr 2022
The recently published ADAPT-DES sub-study addressed the question of early and long-term impact of contrast-associated acute kidney injury (CA-AKI) on net adverse clinical events. In addition, the authors defined risk factors for the development of CA-AKI in all-comers using contemporary PCI techniques.

Short-term postoperative use of Rivaroxaban to prevent radial artery occlusion after transradial coronary procedure: the RESTORE randomized trial
14 Apr 2022
The RESTORE trial aimed to evaluate the clinical value of short-term postoperative anticoagulation with Rivaroxaban 10 mg daily for 7 days as compared with placebo, in reducing RAO at 24 hours and 30 days.

Randomized clinical trial on prevention of radial occlusion after transradial access using nitroglycerin: PATENS Trial
13 Apr 2022
The aim of the current study was to evaluate whether administration of nitroglycerin at the beginning or end of a trans-radial approach procedure would preserve radial artery patency.

Taming of the Hydra – percutaneous coronary intervention of a single coronary artery arising from the right sinus of Valsalva
20 Sep 2021
A single coronary artery arising from the right sinus of Valsalva with absent left main stem is an extremely rare coronary artery anomaly. Herein, a case of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) to a high grade proximal left anterior descending (LAD) stenosis of an anomalous single coronary...

Two cases of circumflex coronary anomaly arising from RCA: one of them with inferior STEMI and VT
28 Jul 2021
The origin of circumflex from the main RCA has a reported incidence of 0.37 %. Here are two very unusual cases of an anomalous origin of the left circumflex coronary artery from the proximal RCA, one of them with inferior STEMI and VT.
