摘      要：Compared with trans-femoral artery access (TFA), trans-radial artery access (TRA) for percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) has been shown to significantly reduce 30-day mortality, in-hospital major adverse cardiac and cardiovascular events (a composite of 30-day mortality and in-hospital myocardial re-infarction, target vessel revascularization, and cerebrovascular events), major bleeding, and access site complications.[1] TRA is more easily compressible, minimizing hematoma risk, and lower crossover rates to another access. Patients may ambulate immediately after procedure, that hospitalization can be shortened significantly. In some centers, patient with TRA can be discharged on the same day of procedure. It is also superior to TFA with closure devices, and becomes the preferred access site for recent PCI.[2]
