Trial summary

Data from literature: transradial access failure sometimes occurs due to inability to cannulate the radial artery due to radial artery spasm1 causing severe difficulties in manipulation of the guide wires and catheters along the tortuous pathways of the arteries. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Prevention of Radial Artery Occlusion After Trans-radial Cardiac Catheterization. Randomized Duplex Follow-up Study.

Data from literature: transradial access failure sometimes occurs due to inability to cannulate the radial artery due to radial artery spasm1 causing severe difficulties in manipulation of the guide wires and catheters along the tortuous pathways of the arteries. both mechanical stimuli and circulating catecholamines through activation of α1-adrenoreceptors, causing smooth muscle cell contraction \& radial artery spasm

Being tested
ulnar artery compression device, radial artery compression device guided with plysthmography, radial artery compression device

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • ulnar artery compression deviceDevice

    a radial compression device will be applied at the access site. another closure device will be used for ipsilateral ulnar artery compression for 1-hour duration in order to increase peak velocity blood flow into the radi¬al artery. neither pulse oxymetry nor duplex ultrasonography will be performed in case of ulnar artery compression. after ulnar artery compression, the initial compression of the radial artery will be reduced by letting up the pressure until bleeding will be seen and then adding minimal pressure whenever needed in order to maintain radial artery patency.

  • radial artery compression device guided with plysthmographyDevice

    a radial compression device will be applied at the access site. A pulse oximeter sensor was placed over the index finger. Transient ipsilateral ulnar artery will be occluded manually to evaluate the status of radial artery patency by plethysmography (digital pulse analysis), and if there's lack of signal, the process of deflation and reinflation of the radial artery device's bladder will be repeated over the next 15 min to attempt re-establishment of antegrade radial artery flow without affecting hemostasis

  • radial artery compression deviceDevice

    patients undergo the conventional hemostasis compression by using a radial compression device applied at the access site.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The percentage of occurrence of radial artery occlusion

    the assessment will be done after compression device removal guided by duplex post trans-radial cardiac catheterization.

    Measured: 1 hour

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ulnar artery compression device, radial artery compression device guided with plysthmography and radial artery compression device in people with CARDIAC CATHETRIZATION, run by Assiut University.

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 2 inclusion and 6 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jun 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Salwa dimitry, MD (00201223971267, salwademitry@yahoo.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The percentage of occurrence of radial artery occlusion (time frame: 1 hour). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 9 Jun 2017; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
