Feasibility and Safety of a Computer-Controlled Device for Transradial Cerebral Angiography: A Prospective Pilot Study

Key Points

• The study evaluates the effectiveness and safety of a device designed for local anesthetic delivery during transradial cerebral angiography.
• Prospective pilot study design with an initial series of patients.
• Assessment of procedural pain and hemodynamic changes during the procedure.
• The computer-controlled device demonstrated acceptable safety and feasibility.
• Descriptive data indicated reduced procedural pain levels in the initial patient cohort.
• No significant hemodynamic changes were recorded during angiography.
