ASSESSMENT OF CORRELATION BETWEEN RADIAL ARTERY OCCLUSION AND ITS PREDICTORS AFTER TRANSRADIAL APPROACH

Abstract

Background: The radial artery is the most preferred access for coronary interventions. Radial artery 
occlusion (RAO) is a common complication and serious concern after transradial approach (TRA). The 
current study assessed the clinical, angiographic, and Doppler ultrasound correlation of RAO and its 
predictors after TRA.
