Abstract
To avoid late bleeding from the femoral artery puncture site after outpatient femoral angiography, a compression device was designed to exert continuous pressure over the groin, even when the patient is upright. It has been successfully used in more than 2,000 arterial catheter procedures. The device can also help prevent bleeding in patients who are at increased risk because of hypertension or anticoagulant therapy.
