New wrist technique aims to make heart procedures safer and faster

NCT ID NCT05006027

Summary

This study tested a new way to perform a common heart artery procedure (PCI) by accessing the artery through a spot on the wrist instead of the groin. It used a specially designed thinner tube to see if this approach is safe and effective, particularly for reducing bleeding and other access-site problems. The goal was to see if this method could lead to fewer complications and a quicker recovery for patients.
