Brief summary

This study aims to demonstrate the superiority in clinical performances of a dual artery compression device (Terry-2 band) compared to a standard radial artery-only hemostasis device (HemoSTOP).

Inclusion criteria

* any patients referred for diagnostic angiography and possible percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)

Exclusion criteria

* Patient unable to understand study design or objectives * Unable to sign informed consent * Patient taking warfarin or other anticoagulant therapy * Chronic RAO on both sides precluding TRA * Previous ipsilateral transradial approach * Inability to comply with the study follow-up * Presence of plethysmographic waveform with radial and ulnar occlusive compression * Pre-existing local complication (i.e. hematoma, pseudo-aneurysm, ...) precluding access-site evaluation.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Rate of RAO after transradial approach (TRA) at hospital dischargeup to 24 hoursTo determine whether the use of a dual artery compression decreases the rate of radial artery occlusion after transradial catheterization.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percentage of radial artery patent-hemostasis during hemostasisthroughout intervention, up to 180 minutesTo determine the conservation of blood flow through the radial artery during compressive hemostasis
Patient comfort during hemostasis as assessed on a visual scalethroughout intervention, up to 30 daysTo evaluate the level of patient comfort in relation to the device used
Rates of complications such as repeat bleeding and hematoma (EASY Scale)throughout intervention, up to 30 daysTo determine the incidence of complications in relation to the device used. Bleeding, spasm and presence of hematomas will be evaluated.
Nursing involvement in hemostasis management for sensitivity analysis on cost assessmentthroughout intervention, up to 24 hoursTo determine the overall nursing involvement (time per nurse per patient) in hemostasis monitoring from end of procedure to patient discharge for a cost-benefit evaluation.
