Summary

This single-center, prospective, randomized study will evaluate distal radial artery (dRA) vs. proximal radial artery access (pRA) in regards to hand function and radial artery occlusion.

Detailed description

Primary objective is to evaluate hand function following distal radial artery access compared to proximal artery access in patients undergoing cardiac catheterization. Hand function will be assessed by: * QuickDASH questionnaire * Hand grip test * Thumb forefinger pinch test utilizing a pinch gauge Secondary objectives: Vascular access success rates, hematoma, bleeding, complications of vascular access and radial artery occlusion.

Conditions

• Coronary Angiography
• Coronary Angioplasty

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
PROCEDURE	Distal radial artery access	Patients undergoing coronary angiography or angioplasty at The Heart Hospital Baylor Plano will be randomized 1:1 to distal or proximal radial access for cardiac catheterization.
PROCEDURE	Proximal radial artery surgery	Patients undergoing coronary angiography or angioplasty at The Heart Hospital Baylor Plano will be randomized 1:1 to distal or proximal radial access for cardiac catheterization.
