USage of chitosan for Femoral (USF) haemostasis after percutaneous procedures: a comparative open label study

Abstract

The HemCon(r) pad significantly decreased time-to-haemostasis compared to the regular pad. The total incidence of haematoma tended to be lower in the HemCon(r) pad compared to the regular pad group.

Hemostasis pad combined with compression device after transradial coronary procedures: A randomized controlled trial

“…The safety of chitosan-based hemostasis pads has been shown in previous studies. [11, 27] In this study, the frequency of allergic reactions was low, and no patients developed severe allergic reactions.…”

“…Compression devices (CD) or hemostasis pads are popular methods for bleeding control after radial artery punctures. [11–13] In this study, we hypothesized that the combination of CD and chitosan-based pads would improve the hemostasis efficacy compared with CD alone after transradial coronary angiography or interventions.…”

A Comparison of 2 Devices for Radial Artery Hemostasis After Transradial Coronary Intervention

“…15Y19 Previous studies have shown the hemostatic efficacy of chitosan after transfemoral percutaneous procedures. 20 In this study, the chitosan pad significantly decreased time to hemostasis compared with the TR Band. There were no major access site bleeding complications and no significant differences in the rate of minor access Abbreviations: CAO, chronic radial artery occlusion (defined as radial artery occlusion observed 30 days after the procedure); CD, compression device; CS, chitosan-based pad; EAO, early radial artery occlusion (defined as radial artery occlusion observed at 24 hours after the procedure); NS, not significant.…”

A New Hemostasis Tool after Percutaneous Angioplasty: The Hemcontm Pad Hemostasis Device

“…Therefore, there are difference heparin dose, ACT, and duration for manual compression. Recently, there are some reports for HemComTM pad for hemostasis after cathetel [9,10], however there are no precious guideline for compression time for using HemComTM pad. In our study, blood pressure and sheath sizes had not affected hemostasis duration.…”
