The transradial access has been used for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for more than 10 years. Many studies have confirmed several advantages of a radial route over the traditional transfemoral approach, some of which include a decreased incidence of access site complications, an earlier ambulation after the procedure which helps make patients more comfortable after the procedure.4-SHowever, the radial artery is easier to spasm as it is smaller than the femoral artery. This kind of phenomenon often happens when shifting from angiographic catheters to guiding catheters.
