Transradial Approach for Complex Anterior and Posterior Circulation Interventions: Technical Nuances & Feasibility of Using Current Devices

Back to course

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, Dr. Shah discusses the transradial approach to complex anterior and posterior circulation interventions in neurointervention. The presentation highlights the safety and feasibility of transradial access and offers technical nuances learned during the process. The speaker references studies in cardiology that have shown the benefits of radial versus femoral access, and discusses the transition towards radial access in neurointervention. The video also includes a description of the access technique and the success rates experienced during the conversion of their lab to a radial-first approach. The presentation concludes by discussing the limitations and future directions of transradial access in neurointervention.
