Coronary Angiography from Right Radial Route: Advanced Technology at Eden Critical Care Hospital
Coronary angiography is a crucial diagnostic procedure that helps detect blockages in the coronary arteries, ensuring timely intervention for heart diseases. At Eden Critical Care Hospital, we utilize the latest technology for coronary angiography from the right radial route, offering a safer, more comfortable experience for patients.
What is Coronary Angiography?
Coronary angiography is a minimally invasive imaging test that visualizes blood flow in the coronary arteries. It involves the use of contrast dye and X-ray imaging to detect blockages or narrowing that could lead to heart attacks or other cardiovascular issues.
Why Choose the Right Radial Route?
Traditionally, angiography was performed through the femoral artery in the groin. However, the right radial artery (wrist approach) has emerged as a preferred technique due to several benefits:
- Less Discomfort – The wrist approach is less invasive and causes minimal pain.
- Faster Recovery – Patients can sit up and move sooner after the procedure.
- Lower Risk of Complications – Reduces the chances of bleeding and vascular complications.
- Greater Patient Comfort – Particularly beneficial for elderly and obese patients.

The Procedure: Step-by-Step
- Preparation – A local anesthetic is applied to the wrist to numb the area.
- Catheter Insertion – A thin catheter is carefully inserted into the right radial artery.
- Contrast Injection – A special dye is introduced to highlight arteries in X-ray images.
- Imaging and Diagnosis – The cardiologist evaluates the images for any blockages.
- Completion & Recovery – The catheter is removed, and a compression band is applied.
Who Should Consider a Coronary Angiography?
