New long-term data from the CSP 474 trial offers a challenge to some of the conventional wisdom around graft choice in CABG surgery and may further the debate over recent guideline recommendations.

Major cardiac events were fewer at 5 years in patients receiving a radial artery graft as the second conduit in coronary bypass surgery (CABG) vs a saphenous-vein graft (SVG) in a patient-level ...

BOSTON -- A short course of rivaroxaban (Xarelto) after transradial coronary procedures helped prevent radial artery occlusion complications, the RIVARAD trial from Tunisia showed. The direct-acting ...

Patients undergoing heart bypass surgery lived longer and had better outcomes when surgeons used a segment of an artery from their arm, called the radial artery, instead of a vein from their leg, ...

ATLANTA -- Radial artery access for cardiac catheterization appeared similarly safe for the hand whether done proximally or distally, the randomized DIPRA trial showed. Overall change in 30-day hand ...

The use of radial-artery grafts for coronary-artery bypass grafting (CABG) may result in better postoperative outcomes than the use of saphenous-vein grafts. However, randomized, controlled trials ...

Data are early, retrospective, and unlikely to influence guidelines, but interest among operators is growing, says Sameh Sayfo.

The primary outcome of their study, graft occlusion, does not take into account severely diseased grafts. If this outcome were included, there would be no difference between the two types of graft.

One-year findings from the Distal versus Proximal Radial Artery Access for Cardiac Catheterization and Intervention (DIPRA) study were presented today as late-breaking clinical research at the Society ...
