摘要: Abstract Background: Radial artery spasm (RAS) is a common complication of transradial approach (TRA) to percutaneous coronary angiography (CAG) and intervention. Lower friction resistance between catheter RA wall may reduce RAS upon insertion, manipulation, withdrawal the catheter. The aim this study was investigate whether use hydrophilic-coated (HC) catheter, which has lower coefficient, could incidence compared with non-hydrophilic-coated (NHC) Methods: A total 250 patients attempted diagnostic CAG using 5-French catheters via TRA September 2000 April 2002. Two hundred thirty-four (93.6%) who achieved successful cannulation were selected for study. NHC used in 149 (63.7%), HC 85 (36.3%). We catheters. Results: occurred 17 (7%) totally. less likely occur group (one patient, 1%) than (16 patients, 11%, P =0.007). Conclusions: conclude that can
