Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The transradial approach for coronary angiography and angioplasty is now widely used in catheterization laboratories worldwide, which had been shown as advantages over the conventional femoral and brachial approaches due to the lower incidence of bleeding and other cardiovascular complications. However, the transradial approach does not seem suitable for 5-15% of patients undergoing coronary angiography and angioplasty. The ulnar artery which is one of the two terminal branches of the brachial artery is usually larger than radial artery and it may be as a potential approach for cardiac catheterization. Recently, some reports have demonstrated that the transulnar approach may be both feasible and safe for coronary angiography and angioplasty in selective patients.we performed this study to evaluate the safety and feasibility of transulnar approach coronary catheterization in real world non-selective patients.
