Comparison of Two Protocols for Deflation of Radial Band Following Coronary Procedures Via the Radial Artery (SQUARE1)

April 2, 2019 updated by: SUNIL NADAR, Sultan Qaboos University

Comparison of Two Protocols for Deflation of Radial Band Following Coronary Procedures Via the Radial Route

Coronary angiography is now mainly performed via the radial route rather than the femoral route. At the end of the procedure, the sheath is removed and a band is inflated to obtain hemostasis. The air in the band is then deflated at regular intervals. Currently there are different protocols for deflation of the band, but none of these have been studied with regards to patient comfort and time of deflation, and potential complications such as bleeding. Here in this study the investigators wish to compare two such protocols of band deflation and assess the levels of patient comfort and time to discharge with two widely used protocols.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Coronary angiography is a procedure by which the anatomy of the coronary arteries are studied. It can be done either via the radial artery approach or the femoral artery approach. Currently most centers use the radial artery approach due to the lower risk of access site bleeding as compared to the femoral artery approach. In addition, the radial approach allows earlier patient mobilisation after the procedure.

Once the sheath, through which the procedure is done, is removed, a special air filled band is used to compress the artery to prevent bleeding. This involves filling the band with around 18 ml of air and then releasing the air at periodic intervals. There are however no set protocols for the removal of air and literature often suggests varying protocols. However what the protocols try to achieve is proper hemostasis, with low incidence of radial artery occlusion. In addition to these, patient comfort and safety along with staff ease of use is important. Some protocols involve frequent deflations which might be more tedious for the nurses, but more comfortable for patients whilst others might be easier for the staff (due to longer intervals), but more uncomfortable for the patients. However, there are no studies that actually compare these protocols

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Active Comparator: Late deflation of TR band
  1. first 3ml of air removed from the TR band after TWO hour of sheath removal. Then, 3ml of air removed every 15minutes.
  2. Observe for any bleeding or hematoma. During every deflation, if any bleeding or hematoma is noticed then 3ml of air is pushed back into the device until bleeding stops. Then wait for another 15minutes for the next deflation.
Device: Late deflation of TR band
  1. First 3ml of air is removed after TWO hour of sheath removal. Then, 3ml of air is removed every 15minutes.
  2. Observe for any bleeding or hematoma. During every deflation, if any bleeding or hematoma is noticed then 3ml of air is pushed back into the device until bleeding stops. Then a gap of 15minutes is observed for the next deflation.
Other Names:
  • Late deflation
Active Comparator: Early deflation of TR band
  1. First 2ml of air is removed from the TR band ONE hour after sheath removal. Then, 2ml of air is removed every 30minutes.
  2. Observe for any bleeding or hematoma. During every deflation, if any bleeding or hematoma is noticed then push the 2ml of air back into the device until bleeding stops. Then wait for another 30minutes for the next deflation.

  1. First 2ml of air is removed from the band ONE hour after sheath removal. Then, 2ml of air is removed every 30minutes.
  2. Observe for any bleeding or hematoma. During every deflation, if any bleeding or hematoma is noticed then 2ml of air should be pushed back into the device until bleeding stops. Then wait for another 30minutes for the next deflation.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
