Abstract

The transradial approach is a novel method for coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention. Its popularity has grown since its initial application and is now a common technique in many facilities. This is because the transradial approach is less invasive than the conventional approach, which requires catheter placement into the coronary arteries. Transradial access is safer than trans-femoral access because it results in fewer complications at the interventional site, requires a shorter hospital stay, enables the patient to be mobilized sooner, provides a higher degree of patient comfort, and carries a lower risk of significant bleeding events. This research examines the advantages of accessing coronary arteries through the radial artery, as well as the suggestions made by the guidelines and the challenges generated by the technique. All these issues were discussed in light of existing studies.
