Short-term outcomes of unfractionated heparin vs. low molecular weight heparin in trans-radial coronary angiography: a comparative study
LMWH (enoxaparin) administration via the radial sheath during TRA is a safe and effective strategy for reducing the incidence of RAO compared with UFH without increasing other procedural complications. This suggests that LMWH may be preferred for patients undergoing TRA for coronary angiography to minimize the risk of RAO.
