Abstract: | This study prospectively compared immobilization time followed by use of a vascular hemostasis device (VasoSeal) versus manual compression to achieve hemostasis at the arterial puncture after angiography and percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA). The trial shows that use of a vascular hemostasis device results in earlier mobilization, even in highly anticoagulated PTCA patients compared with manual compression, with no statistically significant complications. |
