About this study

Official title: Comparison Between Left and Right Transradial Approach During Coronary Angiography and Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

This trial will compare the procedural success rate between right and left radial approach in patients undergoing coronary angiography and coronary intervention.

Read the detailed description

The three operators who are proficient in the left radial approach for coronary angiography and coronary intervention will be assigned to the right radial approach for 3 months (phase 1). After then, these three operators will switch approach site to the left radial for another 3 months (phase 2).

Procedural success, time of the procedure, use of contrast agent, and fluoroscopic data will be compared between right radial approach (phase 1) group and left radial approach (phase 2).

What is being measured

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

  1. Procedural success

    Finishing coronary angiography/intervention without changing approach site

    Measured: At the end of procedure

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Puncture time

    Duration from the start of local anesthesia infiltration to the insertion of sheath

    Measured: At the end of procedure

  2. Coronary angiography time

    Duration from the insertion of sheath to the end of coronary angiography

    Measured: At the end of procedure

  3. Puncture + Coronary angiography time

    Sum of puncture time and coronary angiography time

    Measured: At the end of procedure

  4. Coronary intervention time

    Duration from the end of coronary angiography to the end of coronary intervention

    Measured: At the end of procedure

  5. Contrast amount during coronary angiography

    Amount of contrast agent used during coronary angiography

    Measured: At the end of procedure

  6. Contrast amount during coronary intervention

    Amount of contrast agent used during coronary intervention

    Measured: At the end of procedure

  7. Fluoroscopic dose, dose area product during coronary angiography

    Dose area product during coronary angiography

    Measured: At the end of procedure

  8. Fluoroscopic dose, dose area product during coronary intervention

    Dose area product during coronary intervention

    Measured: At the end of procedure

  9. Fluoroscopic time during coronary angiography

    Fluoroscopic time during coronary angiography

    Measured: At the end of procedure

  10. Fluoroscopic time during coronary intervention

    Fluoroscopic time during coronary intervention

    Measured: At the end of procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Radial approach in people with Coronary Artery Disease and Stable Angina, run by Wonju Severance Christian Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 3 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 3 Jan 2018. 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 South Korea. 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?

Procedural success (time frame: At the end of procedure). 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 3 Jan 2018.
