Comparison of the effect of salt bag compression and arterial compressor haemostat after cerebral angiography / 中国医师进修杂志

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo compare the effect of salt bag compression and arterial compressor haemostat for patients after cerebral angiography.Methods Four hundred and ninety-five patients undergoing cerebral angiography were divided into two groups according to the methods of arterial compressionsalt bag compression group (243 cases) and arterial compressor haemostat group (252 cases) in which 131 patients used the YM-GU-1229 arterial compressor haemostat and 121 patients used the NZ-1 arterial compressor haemostat.The associated complications within 3 days were recorded.ResultsThe incidence of complications in salt bag compression group was 3.70％(9/243),in arterial compressor haemostat group was 9.92％ (25/252),and there was significant difference between the two groups(P ＜ 0.01 ).The incidence of complications in YM-GU-1229 arterial compressor haemostat was 12.21％ ( 16/131 ),in NZ-1 arterial compressor haemostat was 7.44％(9/121 ),and there was no significant difference between the two arterial compressor haemostats (P ＞ 0.05).ConclusionThe incidence of complications of arterial compressor haemostat is higher than that of salt bag compression.
