| Core Tip |
Transradial access has become the preferred approach for coronary interventions due to its superior safety profile compared to transfemoral access. However, this intervention can induce structural alterations, reduce the radial artery lumen diameter or result in radial artery occlusion. Preventing these modifications requires a targeted approach. Meticulous pre-procedural ultrasound assessment is essential for appropriate sheath-to-artery size matching. Intra-procedurally, smaller sheath sizes minimize vascular trauma, while adequate anticoagulation reduces thrombus formation and vasospasm. Post-procedural care should emphasize patent hemostasis with time-guided compression to promptly restore arterial flow. By integrating these measures, clinicians can optimize radial artery patency, preserving its suitability for future interventions. |
