3. Introduction
• Despite trans-radial access (TRA) increasing
acceptance, radial artery occlusion (RAO)
continues to be one of the limitations of TRA
and potentially limits the radial artery as an
access site in the future.
• Currently, there is no data whether vasoactive
pharmacological therapy such as
nitroglycerin administered intra-arterially at
the end of the procedure may reduce the
incidence of RAO.
4. Main objective
• To evaluate whether administration of
nitroglycerin at the end of a trans-radial
procedure may preserve the patency of the
radial artery.
• Hypothesis: The addition of nitroglycerin
(nitric oxide donor) at the end of a TRA
procedure may preserve the patency of the
radial artery, thereby reduce the incidence of
RAO.

14. Discussion
• A mechanism where by nitroglycerin (nitrous oxide donor)
may reduce the rate of RAO, is thought to be through its
vasodilatory effect of nitrous oxide.
• The dose of 500 µg nitroglycerin would have achieved a
maximal vasodilatory effect and expected to decrease the
intimal inflammation and intimal hyperplasia of the radial
artery.
• It is hypothesized that 500 µg of nitroglycerin would make a
vasodilation dominancy (through nitrous oxide) in the
endothelium of the radial artery that would
pharmacologically enhance flow, supporting a higher level
of patency to preserve the radial artery during a hemostasis
compression.
15. • RAO as detected by ultrasound in this study was
9.9%. Other studies reported the incidence of
RAO varying from 1.1% to 38%. The present study
suggests that in the real world setting, the
incidence of RAO is higher than expected.
• The strong predictor for the development of RAO
showed from this study was the duration of
hemostasis (OR= 3.11).
• The consistent results with respect to the
duration of hemostasis compression give an
insight that earlier decompression has to be
implemented in our daily practice of TRA.
16. Best radial practice for hemostasis
• Early hemostasis: <4h
• Patent hemostasis:
- Post-procedural nitroglycerin
- Ulnar compression during hemostasis
17. Study Limitation
• Due to the differences in hemostasis local
protocols and devices used, it was quite difficult
to apply a true patent hemostasis technique in all
patients.
• We did not perform a dose-ranging study nor
compare with other potentially more powerful
vasodilator agents.
18. • The administration of nitroglycerin through the
sheath at the end of a trans-radial catheterization
is associated with a reduced incidence of RAO,
one day after trans-radial procedures.
• This suggests that further evaluation of post-
procedural / pre-hemostasis pharmacologic
regimens may be an important aspect of
minimizing the risks of RAO after radial
procedures.
