TRA trends from cardiology may inform neuro-interventional access; leaves open whether safety benefits translate given anatomical differences.
Does transradial access improve safety, cost, and patient satisfaction compared to transfemoral access in interventional procedures?
This review highlights the safety and patient satisfaction benefits of transradial access established in cardiology to encourage its adoption in neuro-interventions.
