Effect of simplified finger exercise on improvement of a patient's comfort degree and decrease related complications during transradial coronary procedures
Objective:To evaluate the effects of simplified finger exercise on improvement of comfort degree and decrease related complications during transradial coronary procedures.Methods:This study randomized 302 patients who underwent a transradial coronary procedure in Huangshi central hospital during 2022 to one of the following 2 groups,(i)simplified finger exercise in addition to routine pre-procedure care(test group,151 patients),(ii)routine pre-procedure care(control group,151 patients).The achievement ratio of radial puncture,incidence of radial artery spasm and dissection(RAS,RAD),change of limb circumference,and painfulness of the limb were observed and analyzed between two groups.Results:Compared to the control group,test group had a higher achievement ratio of radial puncture,lower incidence of RAS and RAD,slighter tumidness of limb and patient felt less pain in test group.Conclusion:Simplified finger exercise has a positive effect on improvement of a patient's comfort degree and decrease related complications during transradial coronary procedures.
