Abstract:Background:The ability to safely achieve hemostasis is a key aspect of percutaneous vascular access. Vascular closure devices (VCDs) were designed to improve the safety of vascular closure; however this has been difficult to prove in recent studies. We present our experience with achieving hemostasis including assessing the safety and efficacy of VCDs. The aim of this study is to assess the technical success, complications and associated risk factors for achieving hemostasis in antegrade femoral punctures for … Show more
