Τransradial artery access has recently gained widespread acceptance as the preferred
approach for coronary angiography and interventions, due to its lower incidence of bleeding …

The growing geriatric population presenting with coronary artery disease poses a primary
challenge for healthcare services. This is a highly heterogeneous population, often …

Background: In some randomized clinical trials, transradial access (TRA) compared with
transfemoral access (TFA) was associated with lower mortality in patients with coronary …

Importance A significant limitation of femoral artery access for cardiac interventions is the
increased risk of vascular complications and bleeding compared with radial access …

BACKGROUND The femoral artery is the most common access route for cerebral
angiography and neurointerventional procedures. Complications of the transfemoral …

Transfemoral access is nowadays required for an increasing number of percutaneous
procedures, such as structural heart interventions, mechanical circulatory support, and …

Background: It is unclear whether or not ultrasound-guided cannulation (UGC) of the femoral
artery is superior to the standard approach (SA) in reducing vascular complications and …

Background: Randomised controlled trials of ultrasound (US)-guided transfemoral access
(TFA) for coronary procedures have shown mixed results. Aims: We aimed to compare US …

Background Whether ultrasound (US)-guided femoral access compared to femoral access
without US guidance decreases access site complications in patients receiving a vascular …

Background The perception of a steep learning curve associated with transradial access has
resulted in its limited adoption in neurointervention despite the demonstrated benefits …
