First transradial coronary angiography in the UAE
ABU DHABI — Ahalia Hospital in the capital has achieved a milestone in successfully carrying out the first transradial coronary angiography in the country.
Transradial coronary angiography, which is a relatively new technique compared to the traditional transfemoral approach, involves a puncture in an artery of the wrist, compared to the puncture in the thigh in the transfemoral approach. This is a safer and far more comfortable technique with fewer complications.
The patient, a 43-year-old male Pakistani, was diagnosed with acute coronary syndrome by the cardiologist at Ahlia Hospital in May. He was referred for angiography to study the blood vessels of the heart. The patient underwent the procedure using a micro puncture system, after which he walked out of the Cath lab without any support.
The Ahalia Hospital Cathlab is the first full-fledged one in the private sector in the capital.
