Effects of radial artery spasm prophylaxis on intracoronary vasomotor responses during acetylcholine spasm provocation testing
Background
Invasive coronary angiography via the radial approach is commonly performed following radial artery spasm prophylaxis (RASP). It is however unknown, whether RASP influences the results of coronary spasm provocation testing performed after diagnostic angiography. We aimed to investigate the effects of RASP on vasomotor responses during intracoronary acetylcholine (ACh) testing.
Methods
We retrospectively screened 372 consecutive patients (51 % female, mean age 61 ± 11 years) with angina and non-obstructive coronary arteries, who underwent intracoronary provocation with ACh according to a standardized protocol. During testing, dose-dependent clinical discomfort and concomitant ischemic electrocardiographic changes were recorded in addition to visual reductions of epicardial lumen diameters. Of these patients, 156 (42 %) received RASP (i.e. 200 μg nitroglycerin and 2.5 mg verapamil), while no RASP was administered in 216 (58 %) patients. Both groups were compared regarding age, sex, cardiovascular risk factors and ACh-test results.
Results
ACh provocation testing revealed a pathological test result in 71 patients (46 %) with RASP and 103 patients (48 %) without (p = 0.752) [epicardial spasm: in 20 patients (28 %) with RASP and 42 patients (41 %) without (p = 0.120); microvascular spasm: in 51 patients (72 %) with RASP and 61 patients (59 %) without (p = 0.362)]. Overall, RASP did not significantly alter coronary artery vasomotor responses, neither regarding the frequency (p = 0.752) or type of coronary spasm (microvascular vs. epicardial; p = 0.108) nor regarding the ACh dose leading to spasm (p = 0.151).
Conclusions
RASP does not significantly affect coronary vasomotor responses to ACh, suggesting that radial artery spasm prophylaxis can be routinely administered even in patients in whom intracoronary spasm testing is performed.
期刊介绍:
The International Journal of Cardiology is devoted to cardiology in the broadest sense. Both basic research and clinical papers can be submitted. The journal serves the interest of both practicing clinicians and researchers.
In addition to original papers, we are launching a range of new manuscript types, including Consensus and Position Papers, Systematic Reviews, Meta-analyses, and Short communications. Case reports are no longer acceptable. Controversial techniques, issues on health policy and social medicine are discussed and serve as useful tools for encouraging debate.
