Efficacy and Safety of "Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Angiography" with Right Transradial Access < i > versus < /i > Left Transradial Access and Femoral Access: a Retrospective Comparative Study
Objective: Over the past 10 years, the rate of patients who have undergone coronary
artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery has increased twofold in cases of
coronary angiography. Today, transradial access is the first choice for
coronary angiography. We aimed to compare the efficacy and reliability of
radial versus femoral access for coronary angiography in
post-CABG surgery in this study.Methods: Data from 442 patients who underwent post-CABG surgery between 2012-2017 were
retrospectively compared. The right radial route was used in 120 cases, the
left radial route in 148, and femoral route in 174. These three pathways
we ...
