About this study

Distal radial access (dTRA) represents a novel site for radial artery access in interventional cardiology, there is little data compare dTRA with conventional radial access (cTRA) in a randomized manner.

It aims to randomly compare between the new distal radial access via the snuffbox and the conventional radial access for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and angioplasty procedures. The objectives of comparing both procedures are to analyze the frequency of complications in terms of occlusion, arterial spasm, hematoma, and to weigh accesses effectiveness in terms of time and attempts to puncture, crossover rate, procedure duration, hemostasis time.

Candidates for coronary angiography are being randomized into the interventional group to undergo the angiography through the distal radial artery as the access site, or the control group accessing through the radial artery. Procedural and post procedural outcomes and complications are being reported while patients are in hospital. All patients undergo doppler ultrasonography within 24 hours before and after the procedure, 4 weeks after procedure.

What is being measured

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

  1. Radial artery occlusion

    Doppler Ultrasonography of the radial artery for occlusions along its course, in both groups. Incidence of radial artery occlusion as confirmed by absense of antegrade flow in vascular doppler ultrasound.

    Measured: Within 24 hours after the procedure.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Coronary Angiography and Intervention in people with Coronary Disease, run by Beijing Anzhen Hospital.

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 4 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 13 Apr 2021. 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 Lixia Yang, Doctor (13661339066, ylx966@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Radial artery occlusion (time frame: Within 24 hours after the 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 NCT04784078, which also lists 5 linked publications.

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 13 Apr 2021.
