Single-use Radial Access Device – Patient Comfort Start to Finish

Game-Changing Radial Access Support

Radial Cradle® is a single-use arm support that transforms the radial access experience for both clinician and patient

Perfect wrist position every time

Intuitive, ultra flexible assembly accommodates all patient geometries, left and right access and bi-lateral procedures

Integral sling for safer patient transit & recovery

Comfortably immobilises the wrist post-procedure to reduce haematomas on the ward.

Our aim to reduce clinician radiation exposure

Radial Cradle system replicates the medial arm position known to reduce radiation scatter and unlike conventional systems, also allows full table lead-skirting operation on cath-lab beds. With a dosimeter study underway, initial results show significant reductions for clinicians.

40% eye dose reduction. New study data in.

No active patient involvement required

Radial Cradle® offers unrivalled levels of patient comfort and wrist stability. Wrist position unchanged even after defibrillation.

Improved operator ergonomics

Draped arm position restores natural, stable instrument work area and height to reduce clinician back-strain.

Seamless integration to current workflow

IV access and ECG-lead management features. Compatible with all known mattresses, haemostasis bands and drapes.

Faster patient turnarounds

Sling feature enables rapid ambulation from the cath-lab to radial lounge with minimal cleaning.

Helping to reduce haematomas

Immobilises the wrist post-procedure to prevent inadvertent radial compression device migration during patent haemostasis.

Single-use to remove contamination risk

Clean device used for every patient.

Fitted in 4 steps, in under 60 seconds

Single-use textile component splits into three working parts, then fits with ease with the dedicated reusable Radial Cradle® Bed Board.

Optimal wrist position for radial cannulation

Wrist extension is commonly taught as part of the radial artery cannulation technique. A systematic review and meta-analysis has confirmed that wrist extension at an angle of 45° significantly reduced the depth of the radial artery and increased its dimensions as assessed by ultrasound, increasing first pass success rate and reducing cannulation time, compared to other wrist positions.

Radial Cradle® helps achieve optimal wrist positioning to facilitate efficient radial artery access.
