Usefulness of collagen plugging with VasoSeal after PTCA as compared to manual compression with identical sheath dwell times

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Diagnosis
S SilberA Rösch

Abstract

This study investigated the usefulness of collagen plugging with VasoSeal in patients after PTCA compared to a control group having identical sheath dwell times and therefore comparable levels of anticoagulation. A total of 150 patients were enrolled in this prospective and randomized study. Sheaths were pulled at exactly 5 h after arterial puncture. Time to hemostasis and local complications were determined. There were no statistical differences in baseline characteristics. The mean time to hemostasis in the collagen group was significantly shorter (3 +/- 3 min) than that of the control group (17.4 +/- 7 min). At 24 h, 23% of the collagen group patients had a small, 1% a medium and 4% a large hematoma. In the control group, 32% had a small, 4% a medium sized, but no patient a large hematoma. After collagen, one patient developed a pseudoaneurysm needing vascular surgery. In the control group, no major complication occurred. Compared to patients with manual compression at an identical sheath dwell time and an identical level of anticoagulation, there was a significant reduction in time to hemostasis but no statistical difference regarding local complications. Although the incidence of medium or large hematoma was low, the trend...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
