Brief Summary

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

The purpose of this study is to determine if there is a difference in the size and the depth of the radial artery at the access points for established radial and new distal radial approach for the arteries of both arms

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Radial approach for coronary and peripheral procedures is now well established due to both patient and operator preference and carries a lower risk of bleeding and mortality. The most lasting consequence of transradial procedures remains radial artery occlusion, which is mainly influenced by the artery diameter and the size of the sheath. As a new, more distal approach looms on the horizon, it is plausible to determine factors that could impact its feasibility. Since the success rate for artery cannulation depends to a great extent on the size and the depth of the artery, the current study examines both parameters, as well as whether they are influenced by variables such as sex, body mass index, handedness, or comorbidities i.e. diabetes mellitus and hypertension.
