  • Title: Radial access site inflammatory reaction to a recently available hydrophilic coated sheath.
    Author: Swaminathan RV, Wong SC.
    Journal: Catheter Cardiovasc Interv; 2011 Jun 01; 77(7):1050-3. PubMed ID: 21598357.
    Abstract:
    A sterile inflammatory reaction at the radial access site has been described in the literature as an adverse local reaction to Cook hydrophilic coated sheaths during transradial catheterization. To date, this reaction has not been observed with non-Cook hydrophilic sheaths. Here, we describe two cases of such a reaction with Glidesheaths™ at our institution.
