The transradial access is recommended by current guidelines as a standard approach for diagnostic coronary angiography and interventions [Despite many advantages, the radial access can be associated with certain disadvantages such as pain or vascular complications. The persistent occlusion of the radial artery is certainly the key complication of this vascular approach [In early studies, the incidence of radial artery occlusion following angiography varied from less than 1% to up to 33% [
