Trial summary

Trans-radial approach (TRA) has becoming popular and widely adopted over the last decade. However, radial artery occlusion (RAO) continues to be one of the limitation of trans-radial access and potentially limits the radial artery as an access site in the future. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: A Novel Approach to Reduce Radial Artery Occlusion After Trans-Radial Catheterization: Post-Procedural/Pre-Hemostasis Intra-Arterial Nitroglycerin

Trans-radial approach (TRA) has becoming popular and widely adopted over the last decade. However, radial artery occlusion (RAO) continues to be one of the limitation of trans-radial access and potentially limits the radial artery as an access site in the future. Several strategies have been used to decrease the incidence of RAO including the use of anticoagulation, maintenance of patency during hemostasis, or shortening the duration of compression. Currently, there is no data whether vasoactive pharmacological therapy such as nitroglycerin administered intra-arterially at the end of the procedure may reduce the incidence of RAO. It is hypothesized that the addition of nitroglycerin (nitric oxide donor) at the end of a TRA procedure may reduce the incidence of RAO.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing 500 microgram of Nitroglycerin and Saline 5 mL in people with Injury of Radial Artery, run by National Cardiovascular Center Harapan Kita Hospital Indonesia at 1 site in Indonesia.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Apr 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Indonesia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of radial artery occlusion as confirmed by absence of antegrade flow in vascular high resolution ultrasound (time frame: One Day After the Index Procedure). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02105493, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 Apr 2014.
