About this study
Official title: A Randomized Comparison of Assiut Femoral Compression Device Versus Manual Compression in the Achievement of Hemostasis After Percutaneous Coronary Intervention
This study was performed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a locally designed Assiut Femoral Compression Device (AFCD) versus manual compression (MC). Femoral compression devices have been developed thorough the past decades without being strongly implemented in the catheterization laboratory. Their limited adoption reflects concerns of high cost and conflicting data regarding their safety
Read the detailed description
The intra-arterial sheaths were removed 6 hours after PCI in the MC group according to the standard local protocols. However for AFCD group, the sheaths were removed 2 hours after PCI instead of conventional 6 hours. To standardize compression times, AFCD were applied to patient and complete femoral artery compression were applied for 5 minutes, followed by a gradual release of pressure till distal pulse is palpated. Each patient received a minimum of 13 minutes of compression, with further compression applied only if full hemostasis had not been achieved at that point with maximum of 30 minutes.

What participants receive

Assiut Femoral Compression DeviceDevice
Also called AFCD
Assiut Femoral Compression Devices (AFCD) is a femoral compression system, The pressure dome is situated over the vessel puncture site in the groin and applies a mechanical pressure over the vessel puncture site to induce hemostasis.

To standardize compression times, AFCD were applied to patient and complete femoral artery compression were applied for 5 minutes, followed by a gradual release of pressure over the ensuing 8 minutes. Therefore each patient received a minimum of 13 minutes of compression, with further compression applied only if full hemostasis had not been achieved at that point with maximum of 30 minutes.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Time-To-Ambulation (TTA), measured in hours
Ambulation was defined as patient standing and walking at least 6 meters (20 feet) without re-bleeding or significant oozing requiring manual compression
Measured: TTA was measured from the time the introducer sheath was removed (2 hr in AFCD group and 6 hours in MC group after end of PCI) to time of ambulation
the absence of major adverse events on discharge
major adverse event (MAE) was defined as symptomatic bleeding associated with hemoglobin drop ≥5 g/dL requiring blood transfusion, fatal bleeding that directly results in death, a pseudoaneurysm or arteriovenous fistula, distal arterial embolism, infections requiring administration of IV antibiotics or debridement, and the need for vascular surgery.
Measured: 24 post procedure
Secondary outcomes (2)
Device success:
This was defined as easy application of the device with good fixation and stability and achieving final hemostasis. Device Stability was defined as absence of tilt and/or mobility after application of the device on top of the patient groin. Assessment of the device application was performed using a questionnaire with a scale of three grades; "Easy", "Difficult" and "Requires Improvement". Assessment of stability and fixation of the device was performed on a scale defined as "Very Good", "Good" and "Bad".
Measured: 5 minutes during application
Procedure success
This was defined as hemostasis achieved by the assigned method, without the occurrence of a closure-related major adverse event (MAE).
Measured: 24 h post procedure
