ClinicalTrials.gov processed this data on August 23, 2015 Link to the current ClinicalTrials.gov record.
Condition(s) targeted: Cardiac Catheterization; Spasm
Intervention: Nitroglycerin and lidocaine (Drug); Placebo (Other)
Phase: Phase 2/Phase 3
Status: Completed
Sponsored by: University of California, San Francisco Official(s) and/or principal investigator(s): Andrew Boyle, MBBS, PhD, Principal Investigator, Affiliation: University of California, San Francisco
Summary
The aim of the study is to facilitate radial artery access for cardiac catheterization. The
investigators hypothesize that topical nitroglycerin and lidocaine will reduce radial artery
spasm. Patients undergoing cardiac catheterization via the radial artery will be randomized
to topical nitroglycerin + lidocaine versus placebo.
Clinical Details

Study design: Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Double Blind (Subject, Caregiver, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor), Primary Purpose: Treatment
Primary outcome: Change in Radial Artery Diameter
Secondary outcome: Radial Artery Spasm During CatheterizationRadial Artery Patency
