Plug vs pressure: which is safer after a heart scan?
NCT ID NCT01001663
Summary
This study tested if a small plug-like device (FemoSeal®) is better than manual hand pressure for closing the small hole in the leg artery after a common heart imaging test called coronary angiography. It involved 1005 patients to see which method caused fewer large bruises and complications, and which was more comfortable for the patient. The goal was to find a safer, more effective way to manage this routine part of the procedure.
