Catheter kinking is not an uncommon scenario during cardiac catheterization via transradial access in patients with tortuous vascular anatomy. Several noninvasive and invasive methods have been described to unkink and retrieve the kinked catheter out of the vessel. We present a novel mother-daughter technique to retrieve a kinked radial artery catheter.

01:11Assessment of radial pulse
The radial pulse, located at the wrist, is often the preferred site for assessing peripheral pulse because of its accessibility and dependability. The process of determining the radial pulse involves several steps:
01:25Assessment of apical radial pulse
The A-R pulse assessment involves simultaneous evaluation of the apical and radial pulses. When the apical and radial pulse rates vary, this assessment helps identify a pulse deficit.
