Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Cumulative operator radiation exposure during PCI (µSv) with a set of 3 radiation detection dosimeters on left wrist, left head, and left chestThrough procedure completion, up to 24 hoursTo compare the cumulative radiation dose (µSv) received by the operator between the left distal radial artery approach and the right radial artery approach during PCI. Radiation exposure is measured using a set of three radiation detection dosimeters placed on the operator's left wrist, left head, and left chest.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
crossover rate (%)Through procedure completion, up to 24 hoursThe percentage of participants who required a change in the initial arterial access site to a different site to successfully complete the PCI procedure.
Fluoroscopy time (min)Through procedure completion, up to 24 hoursTotal duration of exposure to fluoroscopy during the PCI procedure, measured in minutes.
Procedure time (min)Through procedure completion, up to 24 hoursTotal time from the first skin incision or needle puncture to the removal of the last catheter/sheath, measured in minutes.
volume of contrast medium used (mL)Through procedure completion, up to 24 hoursTotal volume of radiopaque contrast media administered to the participant during the procedure, measured in milliliters (mL).
