Key result
Pre-bypass systolic pressures were greater in the radial artery than in the subclavian artery in men undergoing coronary artery surgery.
Why the study?
Does radial artery pressure differ from subclavian artery pressure in men undergoing coronary artery surgery?
Observational (n=9)
Does radial artery pressure differ from subclavian artery pressure in men undergoing coronary artery surgery?
Radial artery systolic pressures are greater than subclavian artery pressures pre-bypass during coronary artery surgery.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Radial artery systolic pressures may overestimate central values pre-bypass; leaves open clinical relevance in coronary surgery.
Bazaral et al. (1988) conducted an observational in Coronary artery surgery requiring cardiopulmonary bypass (n=9). Radial artery pressure measurement vs. Subclavian artery pressure measurement was evaluated on Systolic pressures pre-bypass. Pre-bypass systolic pressures were greater in the radial artery than in the subclavian artery in men undergoing coronary artery surgery.
