 The End of the Bleeding Era?Apurva Badheka and Mauricio G. Cohen With the increased interest in transradial catheterization in the U.S., safer catheterization procedures appear to be a tangible goal to be attained within the next few years. Once the radial artery becomes the preferred and most frequently used access site for catheterization procedures, clinician will be able to determine the optimal antithrombotic strategy based on the individual risk for ischemia versus bleeding complications, most of which will be non-access-related.

 Transradial PCI in WomenSunil V. Rao and Mitchell W. Krucoff More data are needed before transradial PCI can be considered as a panacea for post-PCI complications in females. This equipoise calls for a dedicated randomized trial comparing radial and femoral approaches in women undergoing PCI. More › |
 The Rising Tide of Transradial Cardiac CatheterizationMorton J. Kern What is it now that brings this rising tide of transradial activity to our shores? The answer is outcome data. The continued demonstration of superior outcomes and acceptance of one technique with the unavoidable involution of another is the most striking sign of a beneficial evolution and improvement in the field of medicine in which we practice.
