Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this non-inferiority trial is to determine if the distal radial access (DRA) during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has an acceptable efficacy compared to the reference access through the conventional radial artery (TRA) with a lower rate of radial artery occlusion (RAO) in real life practice.


Clinical Trial Description

The conventional radial approach is the recommended vascular access for percutaneous coronary interventions. It is effective, feasible, but associated with a risk of occlusion of the radial artery. The distal radial approach is proposed as a new approach to reduce complications and preserve the radial artery. However, few clinical trials in real life were conducted in North African patients. This trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the distal radial approach versus the conventional radial approach. This trial is a non-inferiority, randomized controlled trial with two parallel arms: distal radial approach and conventional radial approach. Two hundred and fifty patients scheduled for percutaneous coronary intervention will be included. The two main endpoints are the puncture success rate with a non-inferiority margin of 10% and the rate of 30-day occlusion of the punctured radial artery. Secondary endpoints: catheterization success, crossover rate, procedure time, radial artery spasm, bleeding complications, QuickDASH score, pain score and operator satisfaction A single blind analysis will be led according to the per-protocol and intention-to-treat methods. Avoiding occlusion of the puncture site allows to preserve the radial artery for subsequent coronary or cerebral percutaneous interventions as well as for coronary bypasses and hemodialysis fistulas. The results will provide the parameters related to the efficacy and safety of the distal radial approach, so improving clinical practice. ;
