Radial artery access outcomes in heart and vessel procedures
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This registry collects data from patients undergoing heart or blood vessel procedures using a small artery in the wrist (radial or ulnar artery) for access. Researchers track outcomes to better understand the safety and effectiveness of this approach.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older
- You are scheduled for a vascular intervention (heart catheterization, angiogram, or similar procedure)
- Your procedure will use radial or ulnar artery access (a small artery in your wrist or forearm)
- You can provide informed consent to participate
- Your complete procedure and medical records are available

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial looks at using the ulnar artery in the wrist instead of the radial artery for heart catheterization or stent placement, when the radial artery on that side is blocked. It may be an option for people who cannot use the other arm's radial artery.
This trial tests whether a new wrist access point (the distal radial artery) along with specific drug treatments (CAG and PCI) is safe and effective for people with small blood vessels in the heart. It aims to offer an alternative that may reduce bleeding or damage risks.
This trial tests whether giving a blood-thinner called heparin to all patients during a procedure through the wrist (radial artery) is better than giving it only when needed. The goal is to see which approach reduces the risk of the artery getting blocked afterward.
This study tests two ways to control bleeding after a heart/blood-vessel procedure done through the wrist (or elbow) artery. It may help make the procedure safer and improve how well the artery is managed during healing.
This trial tests if a blood thinner called Rivaroxaban can treat a blood clot that forms in the wrist artery after a heart catheterization. If you have this clot, taking Rivaroxaban may help reopen the artery and improve blood flow.
This trial compares hand function after two ways to access the wrist artery for heart tests or treatments. It may help people who need a coronary procedure understand if a newer access site is better for their hand health.
