Detecting the vascular complication rate after percutaneous coronary interventions by radial and femoral access.
Methods: observational and prospective study, 78 patients who undergo percutaneous coronary intervention where included. Demographics, clinical and procedure related complications rate where evaluated.
Results: in 87.2% patients, catheterizations is perform by the radial artery access. 10.2% had vascular complications, four minor and three major hematoma and one pseudoaneurism. The frequency of complications in patients with radial access was 10.2%. The frequency was higher in women and short size. Al patients were alive at hospital discharge.
Conclusion: most of percutaneous coronary interventions were performed by radial approach with a low complication rate showed and no impact on mortality
