  Due to its superior safety and virtual elimination of access site complications, trans-radial access to cardiac catheterization and interventions is gaining popularity worldwide. Several types of puncture equipment and introducer sheaths are available for radial puncture, and their use depends on availability and local practice patterns. Pharmacological agents are routinely used in conjunction with this approach to minimize radial spasm, thrombosis, and subsequent occlusion. Today, practically any coronary intervention can be performed safely and effectively via trans-radial route. Radial artery occlusion following trans-radial cardiac catheterization is relatively uncommon, and although usually silent, it should be avoided at all cost as it limits future radial access.
