“…The radial approach appears as a safe method and multiple randomized clinical trials and reports have confirmed its applicability and potential advantages over the TFA in elective (5,6) and acute (7)(8)(9)(10)(11) procedures with excellent success rates and very low complication rates of transradial approach (TRA). In addition, TRA is associated with reduced procedural discomfort of the patients mostly due to prolonged bed rest and vascular compression (12,13). However, there is much less data regarding the pain at the vascular access site associated with TRA and TFA.…”

“…3,4 Transradial procedures may be performed by cannulation either of the right or of the left radial artery, 5 with most operators using the right radial approach (RRA), probably because catheter manipulation can be performed more easily from the patient's right side, as in the femoral approach.…”

“…There were no cases of major or minor bleeding in the 2 groups, probably because all CA and PCI were performed through the transradial approach, which is known to significantly reduce hemorrhagic complications. 18 An important limitation of our study is the small number of patients enrolled. However, this was a pilot study aimed to test the feasibility of an immediate invasive approach for the treatment of patients with NSTEMI.…”
