PRESERVE Radial: A PRospEctive Randomized Clinical Study Comparing Radial ArtERy Intimal Hyperplasia Following Distal Vs. ForEarm TransRadial Arterial Access for Coronary Angiography

Prospective randomized non-blinded study to determine degree of vessel trauma and adverse remodeling of the proximal forearm radial artery following distal radial artery access (dTRA) for cardiac catheterization compared to standard forearm transradial access (fTRA).

Study Overview

Detailed Description

To determine degree of vessel trauma and adverse remodeling of the proximal forearm radial artery, using ultrahigh resolution (55 MHz) ultrasound, following distal radial artery access (dTRA) for cardiac catheterization compared to standard forearm transradial access (fTRA) at 90 days post-procedure. Secondary outcome measures will include metrics of procedural success at 24 hours, as well as functional assessment of pain and motor strength of the ipsilateral upper extremity at 90 days post-procedure.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Consecutive patients undergoing elective and non-emergent TR LHC and/or PCI at the INOVA Heart and Vascular Institute

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Distal transradial access (dTRA)
Subjects randomized to the experimental arm will undergo left heart catheterization using distal transradial access (dTRA) to facilitate coronary angiography and/or percutaneous coronary intervention.
Subjects randomized to the experimental arm will undergo left heart catheterization, coronary angiography and/or percutaneous coronary intervention using distal transradial access (dTRA)
Active Comparator: Forearm radial access (fTRA)
Cardiac catheterization to facilitate coronary angiography and/or percutaneous coronary intervention using the standard forearm radial artery which is the current standard of care in interventional cardiology.
Left heart catheterization, coronary angiography and/or percutaneous coronary intervention using the left forearm radial artery.
