Traditional Versus Distal Radial Access for Coronary Diagnostic and Revascularization Procedures: Final Results of the TENDERA Multicenter, Randomized Controlled Study

The TENDERA trial demonstrated that distal radial access (DRA) for coronary angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) was associated with a lower incidence of forearm radial artery occlusion and a shorter hemostasis time compared to traditional transradial access (TRA). However, DRA was also linked to longer sheath insertion times and a higher crossover rate, Dr. Avtandil M. Babunashvili and colleagues, Center of Endosurgery, Russia, reported in the December issue of Catheterization & Cardiovascular Interventions.
