About this study

Official title: Effectiveness of the Tiger Catheter as a Simple Multipurpuse Catheter in Transradial Coronariography: Randomized Comparerd to Judkins Catheters

The aim of this study was to assess effectiveness and safety of Tiger (5Fr) vs Judkins (5Fr) catheters, in coronariography via the right transradial approach.

This was a prospective, randomized, study of paralled design. Consecutive patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), eligible for coronary angiography, was randomized after successuful cannulation of right artery and informed consent to either Tiger or Judkins catheters.

Read the detailed description

analyzed a total of 120 consective diagnostic coronary angioggraphy cases from the right radial approach. Of these 60 cases were performed with single catheter (Tiger) and 60 cases were performed with conventional catheters (Judkins). The patients of both group were overall well balanced for gender, age, risk factors, height, weight and body surface area. Diagnostic angiograms were successfully achieved in all cases via the radial approach.

What is being measured

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

  1. Produce time for the coronary angiography

    Produce time (min) was defined as the time from the insertion of the first diagnostic coronary catheter in the sheath to the exist of the las diagnostic catheter the sheath.

    Measured: Day 0 (corresponding to time point of produce) assessed by intention - to - tresat analysis (IIT)

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Fluoroscopy time

    Fluoroscopy time (min)was defined as fluoroscopy time during the procedure (between groups)

    Measured: Day 0 (corresponding to time point of produce)

  2. Contrast Volume used

    contrast volume used (ml) was defined as the contrast volume between groups used for completion of coronary angiogram

    Measured: Day 0 (corresponding to time point of produce)

  3. Radial artery Spasm

    Radial artery Spasm was defined as the discomfort or pain in the arm, between groups

    Measured: Day 0 (corresponding to time point of produce). The radial artery spasm was recorded like YES or NOT.(registry did by nurse from beginning to end of coronary angiography)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Tiger catheter and Judkins catheter in people with Acute Coronary Syndrome, run by Marcelo Alberto OLIVA at 1 site in Argentina.

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 4 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 6 Mar 2019. 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 Argentina. 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. 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?

Produce time for the coronary angiography (time frame: Day 0 (corresponding to time point of produce) assessed by intention - to - tresat analysis (IIT)). 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 6 Mar 2019.
