Radial Versus Femoral Access for Diagnostic Coronary Angiography: Insights From a Tertiary Academic Center in Johannesburg

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The radial artery is the preferred access for performing diagnostic coronary angiograms (DCA). However, data on the safety and efficacy of radial compared to femoral access in low‐ and middle‐income countries is limited. Aims This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of radial versus femoral access in patients referred for

Nine‐Year Follow‐Up After M‐TEER for Secondary Mitral Regurgitation in a Patient With Cardiogenic Shock

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Transcatheter edge‐to‐edge repair (TEER) has become an established therapeutic option for patients with severe secondary mitral regurgitation (SMR). While randomized trials and registry data have reported outcomes up to 5 years, longer follow‐up data remain scarce.
