PARIS -- For coronary procedures, conventional radial access held up against a newer technique developed to reduce radial artery occlusion (RAO), according to the DISCO RADIAL investigators. They ...

A systematic battery of tests revealed no worsening of hand function out to 1 year following distal radial access (DRA) for percutaneous coronary procedures in the multicenter RATATOUILLE study.

Coronary access via the distal radial artery for interventional procedures reduces the risk of arterial occlusion and higher-grade hematomas compared with the traditional radial approach, according to ...

PARIS, France—When it comes to reducing the risk of radial artery occlusion (RAO), there is no significant advantage to using the relatively novel distal radial approach over conventional radial ...

Intraarticular fractures of the distal radius were treated successfully with a single volar incision and the insertion of a fixed angle plate. Researchers led by Jorge Orbay, MD, of the Miami Hand ...

ATLANTA -- Radial artery access for cardiac catheterization appeared similarly safe for the hand whether done proximally or distally, the randomized DIPRA trial showed. Overall change in 30-day hand ...

One-year findings from the Distal versus Proximal Radial Artery Access for Cardiac Catheterization and Intervention (DIPRA) study were presented today as late-breaking clinical research at the Society ...

The DIPRA study compared distal and proximal radial artery access for cardiac catheterization and found comparable efficacy and a lower risk of occlusion One-year follow-up results showed promising ...

A left radial artery approach to percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) confers no greater risk for complications than right radial access and may be associated with an early stroke benefit, UK ...

Your radius is one of the two bones in your forearm, along with the ulna. It’s the bone that attaches closest to your thumb. A radius fracture, sometimes called a radial fracture, is a break of this ...

What is Distal Radius Fracture? The larger of the two bones of the forearm is known as radius. The end of the arm towards the wrist is called the distal end. When the area of the radius near the wrist ...
