Distal radial access for endovascular interventions

Abstract
This article, based on the guidelines of the European Society of Cardiology (ESC), Russian clinical recommendations and large randomized trials, summarizes information about traditional radial access used in X-ray endovascular interventions. We present a description and characteristics of a new distal radial approach. It is a puncture of the deep palmar branch of the radial artery (DLV LA) and catheterization of the radial artery distal to its bifurcation to the superfi cial and deep palmar arches.
The aim of this study is to present real time data about distal radial access as current clinical guidelines do not contain information about this new method; to evaluate its advantages and disadvantages, and to assess the frequency of complications. Analysis of references showed that the new distal radial approach is safe, eff ective, competitive and it may be the method of choice for endovascular interventions.
