About this study

Official title: Comparison of Distal Radial, Proximal Radial and Femoral Access in ST-Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction

Distal radial access (DRA) has recently introduced and previous studies have demonstrated that it is feasible option, showing several advantages including less bleeding and access-site complications over proximal radial access (PRA). Previous study reported the feasibility of DRA as an alternative option for primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in STEMI patients without major complication. However, comparison study of each vascular access for primary PCI have not been conducted until now. Here, The investigators aim to compare the DRA, PRA and femoral access (FA), in terms of feasibility and safety, in patients with STEMI.

This is a retrospective study with patients who underwent primary PCI for STEMI between March 2020 to May 2021. The primary outcome of this study is the access-site complication including major bleeding requiring transfusion or surgery, hematoma and arterial occlusion.

Read the detailed description

Recently, DRA has gained the interest of interventional cardiologists and previous studies have demonstrated several advantages including patient and operator comfort, shorter hemostasis duration, less bleeding, and access-site complications over PRA. More recently, randomized trial demonstrated that DRA prevents radial artery occlusion after the procedure compared with PRA. From this perspective, DRA could be considered an alternative access route for primary PCI in selected STEMI patients using potent P2Y12 inhibitors such as ticagrelor or prasugrel, or glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors.

    Vascular access for primary PCI in patients with STEMI

What is being measured

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

  1. access-site complication

    puncture site related complication

    Measured: 1 month

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. The success rate of the puncture

    The success rate (%) of vascular puncture

    Measured: Through procedure

  2. The success rate of the primary PCI

    Success rate (%) = Successful primary PCI / All PCI procedures

    Measured: Through procedure

  3. The percentage of puncture time in Door-to-wiring time (%)

    Puncture time = time interval from local anesthesia induction to successful sheath cannulation.

    Door-to-wiring time = time elapsed from arrival of patient at the emergency department to guide wire passage through the lesion.

    Measured: Through procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction, run by Yonsei University 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 1 inclusion and 1 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 22 Apr 2022. 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?

access-site complication (time frame: 1 month). 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 22 Apr 2022.
