An interventional study of Tiger catheter and Judkins catheter in Acute Coronary Syndrome, sponsored by Marcelo Alberto OLIVA. Completed at 1 site in Argentina. Open to participants aged 18 Years and older. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2019-03-06.
Sponsored by Marcelo Alberto OLIVA · Not applicable, Interventional, and Diagnostic
The aim of this study was to assess effectiveness and safety of Tiger (5Fr) vs Judkins (5Fr) catheters, in coronariography via the right transradial approach.
This was a prospective, randomized, study of paralled design. Consecutive patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), eligible for coronary angiography, was randomized after successuful cannulation of right artery and informed consent to either Tiger or Judkins catheters.
analyzed a total of 120 consective diagnostic coronary angioggraphy cases from the right radial approach. Of these 60 cases were performed with single catheter (Tiger) and 60 cases were performed with conventional catheters (Judkins). The patients of both group were overall well balanced for gender, age, risk factors, height, weight and body surface area. Diagnostic angiograms were successfully achieved in all cases via the radial approach.
Exclusion Criteria:
Tiger simple multipurpose catheter compared to Judkins catheters
Device: Tiger catheter
Judkins right and judkins left catheter
Device: Judkins catheter
Also known as: Tiger
Also known as: judkins right, judkins left
Produce time for the coronary angiography
Produce time (min) was defined as the time from the insertion of the first diagnostic coronary catheter in the sheath to the exist of the las diagnostic catheter the sheath.
Time frame: Day 0 (corresponding to time point of produce) assessed by intention - to - tresat analysis (IIT)
Fluoroscopy time
Fluoroscopy time (min)was defined as fluoroscopy time during the procedure (between groups)
Time frame: Day 0 (corresponding to time point of produce)
Contrast Volume used
contrast volume used (ml) was defined as the contrast volume between groups used for completion of coronary angiogram
Time frame: Day 0 (corresponding to time point of produce)
Radial artery Spasm
Radial artery Spasm was defined as the discomfort or pain in the arm, between groups
Time frame: Day 0 (corresponding to time point of produce). The radial artery spasm was recorded like YES or NOT.(registry did by nurse from beginning to end of coronary angiography)
