ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying the effects of using cold packs along with a special band called the Terumo band after a procedure known as transradial angiography, which looks at the heart's blood vessels. The goal is to see if this combination can help reduce the amount of time the band needs to be on, lower the chance of bruising, and decrease any pain in the arm after the procedure. This is particularly important because many people experience discomfort and complications after such procedures.

To participate in this study, you need to be an adult who is having a transradial angiography for the first time and is in good health regarding your arms and hands. You should also be awake and willing to take part. However, if you have certain conditions like severe diabetes, chronic pain, or bleeding disorders, you won't be able to join. If you do participate, you'll likely have some extra care with the cold application to help make your recovery easier and more comfortable.
