Abstract
- Introduction: The sheathless transradial (TR) technique is a novel approach that may offer potential benefits over the conventional TR approach. We aim to comprehensively investigate the safety and efficacy of sheathless versus conventional TR percutaneous coronary interventions (PCIs). Methods: We conducted comprehensive searches across PubMed, CENTRAL, Web of Science (WOS), Scopus, and EMBASE until July 2023. Pooled data were reported using risk ratio (RR) for dichotomous outcomes and mean difference (MD) for continuous outcomes, along with a 95% confidence interval (CI). PROSPERO ID: CRD42023443834. Results: We included 11 studies with 15,392 patients. The radial artery spasm (RAS) (RR: 0.26, 95% CI: [0.09, 0.77], p = 0.02) and cross‐over to the femoral site (RR: 0.28, 95% CI: [0.10, 0.81], p = 0.02) were significantly lower in the sheathless group. However, radial artery occlusion (RAO) (RR: 2.84, 95% CI: [1.78, 4.54], p < 0.0001) and success rate (RR: 1.011, 95% CI: [1.004, 1.019], p = 0.002) were significantly higher in the sheathless group. Also, we did not find a significant difference between both groups in all‐cause mortality (RR: 0.41, 95% CI: [0.16, 1.04], p = 0.06). Conclusion: The sheathless TR approach showed lower rates of RAS and femoral conversion. Sheathless has a higher success rate; however, it also increased RAO. Thus, more trials are needed to confirm this technique's long‐term outcomes and complications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
