Efficacy of Papaverine to Prevent Radial Artery Spasm During Transradial Cerebral Angiography (PASS): rationale and design [PDF]
Rationale Radial artery spasm (RAS) is a common complication during transradial cerebral angiography (TRA), but currently, the optimal prevention strategy is not well established. Papaverine has anti-vasospasm, sedative and analgesic effects.

Comparison of spasmolytic regimen for prevention of radial artery spasm during the distal radial approach: A single-center, randomized study [PDF]
Background The distal radial approach (DRA) for coronary catheterization is increasingly being used worldwide yet the optimal medication regimen to prevent radial artery spasm (RAS), an important factor for the success of the procedure, remains unclear ...

Association of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (Glu298Asp) gene polymorphism with radial artery spasm during cardiac catheterization in Egyptians [PDF]
Background Nitric oxide (NO) exerts diverse effects on the cardiovascular system. Impairment of NO production plays a key role in cerebral and coronary artery spasm.

The relationship between radial artery spasm and adropin levels in patients undergoing transradial coronary angiography [PDF]
Introduction: Transradial coronary angiography (TRA) is associated with a lower incidence of bleeding rate and access site complications and is associated with better outcomes compared to transfemoral angiography. However, radial artery spasm (RAS) is an

Efficacy of brachial plexus block in reducing radial artery spasm during interventional aneurysm surgery [PDF]
Summary Radial artery spasm (RAS) occurs in around 50% of patients who undergo interventional aneurysm surgery through the radial artery approach, leading to suboptimal long-term recovery for some.

Surgery Averted Using a Novel, Minimally Invasive Approach to Treat Very Severe Radial Artery Spasm [PDF]
A 42-year-old male admitted with a non-ST elevation myocardial infarction was referred for invasive angiographic assessment. Based on preprocedural assessment, the right radial artery approach was selected.

Hand Dysfunction After Intervention via Distal Versus Conventional Transradial Access: A Meta-Analysis of Randomized Trials. [PDF]
This meta‐analysis of randomized controlled trials found that, compared with the conventional transradial access (TRA), the distal transradial access (dTRA) may reduce hand clumsiness and persistent pain, but it increases hand numbness. ABSTRACT Background Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is an important treatment for coronary artery disease ...
