A novel technique for simultaneous hemostasis of ipsilateral radial and ulnar artery access sites.
With the increased use of transradial artery access (TRA) for diagnostic and coronary interventional procedures, crossover to the ipsilateral ulnar artery after TRA failure is being reported more frequently. A major challenge with ipsilateral transradial and ulnar artery access is achieving efficient patent hemostasis of both the radial and ulnar arteries at the completion of the procedure. In this report, we describe two cases of failed TRA with subsequent ipsilateral ulnar artery access. A novel and practical technique of simultaneous patent hemostasis of both the ipsilateral radial and ulnar artery access sites is described, using a QuikClot® Radial® hemostasis pad and a TR Band® .
