IS Trans-Radial Approach Related to an Increased RisK of RAdiation Exposure In Patients Who Underwent Diagnostic CoronaRY Angiography or Percutaneous Coronary Intervention? (The SAKARYA Study)

Abstract: Objective: It is still debatable whether diagnostic coronary angiography (CA) or percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs) increase radiation exposure when performed via radial approach as compared to femoral approach. This question was investigated in this study by comparison of dose-area product (DAP), reference air kerma (RAK), and fluoroscopy time (FT) among radial and femoral approaches. Methods: All coronary procedures between November 2015 and November 2017 were… Show more

“…Although, there was no significant difference between groups regarding thrombus aspiration and tirofiban infusion but CS patients had highly significant more complex coronary artery disease in the form of multivessel, left main coronary artery affection and consequently significant higher number of intracoronary stents displacement in present study. Comparable findings were revealed by a study concluding percutaneous coronary interventions through radial route are significantly associated to radiation exposure but diagnostic coronary angiography using radial access was not associated with higher exposure to radiation [ 24 ]. Contrary findings were reported by another recent study which reported significantly lower fluoroscopic time and lesser contrast volume in trans-femoral route [ 25 ].…”
