Predictors of Complications after Sheath Removal Post Transfemoral Percutaneous Coronary Interventions

Abstract: Background: Complications post percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI) are more threatening than it was previously thought so that necessary measures should be taken to minimize those risks. Objective: To identify the risk factors related to patient and procedure which could be used as predictors of complications after sheath removal post PCI. Methods: The study used a prospective non-experimental correlational descriptive. Design: The sample was chosen conveniently from three different hospitals and include… Show more

“…Batiha, Abu‐Shaikha, Alhalaiqa, Jarrad, & Abu Ramadan () proposed that the removal of the sheath during post‐PCI care should be considered among the responsibilities of critical care nurses. However, the monitoring and management of post‐PCI complications require the involvement of not only nurses, but also other health professionals; such a team would use critical assessment skills to anticipate and detect any vascular problem, allowing them to manage PCI complications at the earliest possible opportunity.…”

“…In the United States 3% of vascular access site complications almost 90,000 patients have been affected affected annually in 3 million procedures [17] Comparatively, as per evidence, the rate of hematoma development between comorbidities (hypertension, diabetes and obesity) are the factors of the vascular site complications [18]. The rate of hematoma development among hypertensive patients was (73%) and diabetes (49%) among post coronary interventions [19]. Moreover, obesity has been identified as a correlated factor with hematoma development post coronary intervention [20].…”
