The Effects of Local Heating on Facilitating Radial Angiography: A Randomized Controlled Trial.
Iran J Nurs Midwifery Res
November 2024
Student Research Committee, Nursing and Midwifery College, Isfahan University of Medical Sciences, Isfahan, Iran.
Background: Angiography through the radial artery is a novel selective approach with several advantages. Shortening the duration of each stage of the procedure leads to many benefits for patients and health personnel. This study aimed to investigate the effect of local forearm heating on facilitating radial angiography.

Division of Cardiology, NYU Grossman School of Medicine, New York, NY, USA.
Purpose Of Review: This review assesses the outcomes of coronary interventions in patients with liver cirrhosis and coronary artery disease (CAD), focusing on the clinical challenges posed by cirrhosis-related hemodynamic and coagulopathic changes. It highlights essential considerations for managing these patients, who have an increased risk of adverse events during coronary procedures.
Recent Findings: Recent studies have shown that patients with liver cirrhosis undergoing PCI experience significantly higher mortality rates compared to non-cirrhotic patients, particularly in the context of STEMI and NSTEMI.
Comparison of single-catheter with two-catheter concept in older female patients undergoing transradial coronary angiography.

Faculty of Medicine, Department of Cardiology, Bilecik Şeyh Edebali University, Pelitözü Mahallesi Fatih Sultan Mehmet Blv. No. 27 Merkez, Bilecik, Turkey.
Background: The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy outcomes of the traditional Judkins left and right catheters with those of the recently introduced Tiger catheter in female participants aged 65 years and older who underwent transradial coronary angiography.
Methods: A cohort of 160 female patients aged 65 and older who were scheduled for coronary angiography (CAG) were divided into two groups according to the use of Tiger (n = 80) or Judkins (n = 80) catheters for radial angiography at a ratio of 1:1, respectively. We analyzed the effectiveness of the Tiger and Judkins catheters, the incidence of catheter failure, contrast volume, CAG time, fluoroscopy time, dose-area product (in mGy/cm), and the occurrence of radial spasm.

Background: This is a single-centre prospective observational study examining radial access in 62 Prostatic Artery Embolisation (PAE) procedures. Evaluation of left radial artery diameter using high frequency ultrasound before and after administration of sublingual glycerl trinitrate (GTN). Pre-procedure questionnaires calculating symptom severity score compared with post-procedure.

School of Engineering, University of Guelph, Guelph, Ontario, Canada. Electronic address:
As a biarticular muscle, the biceps brachii both supinates the forearm and flexes the elbow and shoulder, thus allowing the upper limb to perform a variety of activities of daily living (ADL). The biceps brachii originates on the coracoid apex as well as the supraglenoid tubercle and inserts on the radial tuberosity. At the distal end, the bicipital aponeurosis (BA) provides a transition of the biceps tendon into the antebrachial fascia.
