During transradial procedures, sharp edge of the guide catheter tip may act like a "razor-blade" and can prevent the catheter navigation. It is especially common with radial artery loop, tortuous radial artery and radial artery spasm. We describe a cost effective and easy technique which overcomes this "razor-blade" effect and helps in tracking the guide catheter in complex radial anatomy for the easy and successful completion of procedure.
在经桡动脉手术过程中,导引导管尖端的锐利边缘可能会像“剃须刀刀片”一样起作用,从而阻碍导管的推进。这在桡动脉袢、迂曲的桡动脉和桡动脉痉挛时尤为常见。我们描述了一种经济有效且简便的技术,该技术可克服这种“剃须刀刀片”效应,并有助于在复杂的桡动脉解剖结构中追踪导引导管,从而轻松、成功地完成手术。
