While palpation of radial artery is mandatory prior coronary angiography, it remains unknown the clinical impact of palpation in DRA success. Aim of our study is to explore whether the palpability of distal radial artery is linked with higher rates of successful arterial access.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We conducted a post-hoc analysis using data from two randomized-controlled trials on DRA.

Successful distal radial artery cannulation was attempted in 255 and 98 of patients with and without palpable distal radial artery, respectively. No significant difference between the two groups was observed (81.5% vs 80.3%,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.786). Univariate analysis revealed statistically significant difference in gender, height, known CAD, valvular disease as indication for angiography and number of skin punctures. Multivariate analysis included these variables, as well as palpability of the distal radial artery and found that number of skin punctures and valvular disease as indication are significantly associated with DRA success.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>According our post-hoc analysis, the palpability of the distal radial artery is not associated with higher rates of DRA success.
