Abstract :Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess the safety and efficacy of single Judkins left insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(JL); catheter to view right and left coronary artery in right transradial coronary angiography. Methods: A total of 266 patients underwent coronary angiography from the right radial artery were studied prospectively. Patients with ad-hoc percutaneous coronary intervention insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(PCI);, peripheral angiography, ventriculography or aortography procedures insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(67 patients); were excluded from the study. Coronary angiography was performed with the JL catheter as single catheter group in 171 of the remaining 199 patients, and with the Judkins right and left catheters as the control group in the other 28 patients. Complications, procedure success, procedure time and fluoroscopy time were evaluated between the two groups. Results: Procedure success were 93% insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(159/171); in patients with a single catheter group and 96.4% insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(27/28); in patients with two catheter insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Judkins right and left); group insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(control group); insert ignore into journalissuearticles values( p = 0.49);. Complications insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(spasm); are the same between the two groups insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(8 of 171 [4.7%] patients in study group and 1 of 28 [3.6%] patients in control group, p = 0.79);. Fluroscopy time in single JL catheter group was significantly higher insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(6.20 ± 4.97 min vs 3.76 ± 2.78 min, p = 0.01);. Conclusions: Single JL catheter using to view right and left coronary artery in right transradial coronary angiography was safe and effective. In our study, the success rate of getting left and right coronary artery images with a single JL catheter as high as 93%. However, insisting on imaging with a single catheter extends the duration of fluoroscopy time.
