TRIESTE: Transradial Evaluation Study of Diameter Increase After Vasodilatory Drugs Administration.
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Radial artery access use in percutaneous cardiac interventions (PCI) is associated with a lower risk of vascular complications, bleeding and major adverse cardiac events including cardiac death in the long-term follow-up. Intra-radial administration of vasodilatory drugs, transiently painful for the patient, reduces the risk of spasm and is currently the standard technique performed worldwide. However, the efficacy of intravenous administration of vasodilatory drugs has never been evaluated.

Detailed Description
Single center, randomised controlled trial, designed to evaluate the noninferiority of the intravenous administration of vasodilatory drugs in comparison with the actual gold standard intra-arterial radial route. All consecutive patients with stable ischemic disease or stable acute coronary syndrome (NSTEMI - non-st elevation myocardial infarction) for whom a coronary procedure is planned will be included in the study.
Three groups will be constituted. For all groups, the diameters of both radial arteries will be measured thrice by echo-Doppler: 5 minutes before sheath insertion, immediately before sheath insertion and 5 minutes after sheath insertion. Pain evaluation will be performed after injection of the vasodilatory drugs/placebo in the radial artery:
-
Group 1 (control group): intra-radial administration of the vasodilatory drugs after sheath insertion (verapamil 2.5 mg + isosorbide dinitrate 0.5 mg)
-
Group 2 (intravenous-post): intravenous administration of the vasodilatory drugs after sheath insertion (verapamil 2.5 mg + isosorbide dinitrate 0.5 mg)
-
Group 3 (intravenous-pre): intravenous administration of the vasodilatory drugs 5 minutes before sheath insertion (verapamil 2.5 mg + isosorbide dinitrate 0.5 mg)

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Maximal radial artery diameter dilation, measured by echo-doppler, after administration of vasodilatory drugs by intravenous or intra-radial route. [5 minutes after vasodilatory drugs administration]
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Pain evaluation after vasodilatory drugs administration using the intravenous versus intra-radial route [Procedure (During vasodilatory drugs administration)]
Scale from 0 to 10, lower values corresponding to lower pain and higher values to intense pain.
- Hemodynamic changes after vasodilatory drugs administration using the intravenous versus intra-radial route [5 minutes after vasodilatory drugs administration]
Measure of arterial pressure
- Hemodynamic changes after vasodilatory drugs administration using the intravenous versus intra-radial route [5 minutes after vasodilatory drugs administration]
Measure of heart rate.
