AngioSeal Versus Radial Approach in Acute Coronary Syndrome

Both transradial and transfemoral coronary angiography will be performed by the Judkins technique using arterial introducers with 6 French diameter and pre-molded catheters for selective catheterization of left and right coronary arteries.Percutaneous coronary intervention will be indicated when a culprit lesion is identified, with stenosis diameter severity ≥ 70%, with high probability of angiographic success, being ideally performed immediately after coronary angiography and left ventriculography. Patients with multiarterial coronary disease will be submitted to percutaneous coronary intervention after agreement among cardiologist, interventional cardiologist and thoracic surgeon. Procedures will be performed according to recommendations and provisions of current guidelines.
