Abstract

Objective: This study aims to compare the outcomes of transfemoral versus transradial approach in patients undergoing coronary angiography. Material and Methods: All patients who planned for elective coronary angiography / angioplasty at NICVD, Karachi and fulfilled the inclusion criteria and exclusion criteria were included in the study after taking informed consent. Patients were divided into two groups. Group A (Transfemoral route group) or Group B (Transradial route group) by randomization. All the baseline and clinical collected data were entered SPSS version21.0 for final analysis and a p value of
<0.05 were considered as statistically significant. Results: A total of 126 patients were finally analysed and their mean ± SD of age was 54.93±8.19 years. Out of 126 patients 89 (71%) were male and 37 (29%) were female. The most common risk factor associated with CAD in our study subjects was hypertension (n = 57, 45.23%). Significant association has been observed when comparing the procedure time and post-procedural hospital stay in transfemoral versus transradial approaches 18.89±2.72 vs. 11.33±2.82
