Access Site Practice and Procedural Outcomes in Relation to Clinical Presentation in 439,947 Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention in the United Kingdom

Abstract: In this large study, TRA is associated with reduced percutaneous coronary intervention-related complications in all patient groups and may reduce major adverse cardiac events and mortality in ACS patients. TRA is superior to transfemoral access with closure devices. Use of TRA may lead to important patient benefits in routine practice. TRA should be considered the preferred access site for percutaneous coronary intervention.

“…Previous studies have shown radial access to be associated with many benefits, such as reductions in bleeding rates and major vascular complications 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43. It is also the patient‐preferred arterial access site44, 45 and associated with lower cost 34, 36.…”

“…The utilization of radial (RA) over femoral arterial access (FA) for acute coronary intervention in ST‐elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is supported by a reduction in mortality, ischemic, and bleeding endpoints 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. This has led various interventional societies to encourage its utilization over femoral access 9, 10, 11.…”

“…This is not the first BCIS study to document this march toward radial access dominance or the association of radial access with improved outcomes. 2 Nor is this the largest temporal trends study demonstrating significant growth of the radial strategy: the National Cardiovascular Database Registry (NCDR) studied >2.8 million patients in the United States and documented a growth in radial access from 1.2% to 16.1% of all PCI procedures from 2007 to 2012 3 ; like the current BCIS study, the NCDR analysis also demonstrated regional heterogeneity in growth and improved outcomes among patients receiving radial as opposed to femoral access.…”
