Comparison of radial versus femoral access using hemostatic devices following percutaneous coronary intervention

Arterial access site complications are the important predictor of successful percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). We prospectively studied 722 consecutive PCI patients for access site complications. A total of 303 trans-femoral access (TFA) patients who had suture based vascular closure device...

Sumario:Arterial access site complications are the important predictor of successful percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). We prospectively studied 722 consecutive PCI patients for access site complications. A total of 303 trans-femoral access (TFA) patients who had suture based vascular closure devices (VCD) were compared with 419 transradial access (TRA) patients. Incidence of hematoma was more in TFA (2.3% vs 0.23%, p 0.01). Median ambulation time (4 h vs 1 h, p < 0.01) was significantly higher in TFA. In conclusion, TRA had fewer access site complications like haematoma, compared to TFA with VCD. TRA also resulted in earlier ambulation and discharge, compared to TFA with VCD.
