Discussion

Prospective study uncovers predictors of radial artery occlusion in coronary angiography patients, indicating preventive strategies are needed.

Radial artery occlusion occurred in 8.1% of patients undergoing transradial access for coronary procedures.
Key independent predictors include age, catheter use, and hematoma, with age showing p = 0.012 in analysis.
The study followed patients undergoing transradial access for coronary angiography or PCI from January 2021 to December 2023.
Identifying high-risk patients is crucial for preventing radial artery occlusion and promoting long-term arterial patency.

Sumadio et al. (2025) studied this question.
