ABSTRACT

Introduction: Interventional procedures can be performed by multiple access routes such as: femoral, brachial, ulnar and radial access. The latter is an acceptable and safe alternative. However, no evaluation of the integrity of the radial artery is performed after the procedure.
Objective: To determine, by Doppler echocardiography, the damage of the radial artery after an interventional procedure.
Method: Observational, descriptive, prospective and longitudinal study of 111 patients who underwent transradial interventional procedures, from July 2009 to September 2010, and underwent Doppler echocardiography of the radial artery in the first 72 hours after the procedure.
Results: There was a predominance of male patients aged from 55 to 64 years (45.9%), 24 patients (21.6%) had complications that were detected by Doppler echocardiography, of which 9 patients (8.1%) showed vascular lesions. Radial artery stenosis was the most common lesion (5.4%). Hypertension (33.4%), diabetes mellitus (29.4%), a procedural time between 25-30 minutes (58.3%), and the age group between 45-54 years were predisposing factors for the occurrence of vascular complications (77.8%) and those related to the puncture site (54.1%).
Conclusions: The use of the radial approach is a safe option for percutaneous coronary intervention, which causes, in a low percentage, the occurrence of vascular complications and complications related to the puncture site.
