Major cardiac events were fewer at 5 years in patients receiving a radial artery graft as the second conduit in coronary bypass surgery (CABG) vs a saphenous-vein graft (SVG) in a patient-level ...

(UPDATED) For patients undergoing transradial coronary angiography, manual and mechanical compression of the puncture site result in similar rates of radial artery occlusion, although the time ...

With a median follow-up of 10 years after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), patients who received a radial artery graft rather than a saphenous vein graft as a second conduit were less likely to ...

NEW ORLEANS, LA—At 5 years after treatment, coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgeries performed using the radial artery offer superior patency compared with those using the saphenous vein, ...

Patients undergoing heart bypass surgery lived longer and had better outcomes when surgeons used a segment of an artery from their arm, called the radial artery, instead of a vein from their leg, ...

Doctors reopen blocked arteries by threading a catheter through the femoral artery in the groin or the radial artery in the wrist in a procedure called percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). For ...

ATLANTA -- Radial artery access for cardiac catheterization appeared similarly safe for the hand whether done proximally or distally, the randomized DIPRA trial showed. Overall change in 30-day hand ...

The radial collateral artery originates as a branch of the deep brachial artery. Its path travels behind the humerus, which is the only bone of the upper arm. The artery then descends down the lateral ...

The radial veins run the length of the forearm just below the elbow, and follow the path of the radial bone. Their path is also somewhat comparable to the radial arteries. These veins assist in ...
