Background: The most common complication after coronary angiography (CA) and percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is the development of haematoma. Several changes in procedures regarding CA and PCI have been made in our department in recent years. The aim of this audit is to establish how many patients develop haematoma after CA/PCI via the femoral artery and subsequently to find predictors that increase the risk of developing haematoma. Methods: We initially included 474 consecutive patients-322 patients undergoing CA and 141 patients undergoing PCI. Eleven patients were later excluded due to the absence of complete data. Thirty-three variables were registered in order to find predictors, which might increase the haematoma frequency. A univariate as well as a multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed. Results: Of the 463 patients, 6 patients developed a haematoma > 10 cm (1.3%) and 41 patients developed a haematoma > 5 cm (8.9%). The following factors were found to be associated with the generation of haematoma: Women, systolic blood pressure > 160 mm Hg, artery puncture > 1, sheath time > 16 min, ACT ≥ 175 s, Glycoprotein (GP) IIB/IIIa inhibitors, Low Molecular Weight Heparin before procedure, personnel change during compression, and anti-coagulant-treatment before procedure. Conclusions: The frequency of haematoma was 1.3% (> 10 cm) and 8.9% (> 5 cm), which corresponds with reports from similar studies and departments. The factors found to increase the risk of haematoma development can provide background for procedural changes and increase the focus on patients at increased risk in order to minimize the development of haematomas.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of the figure-of-eight (FOE) suture technique in the treatment of tunnel bleeding after femoral artery puncture compared with manual compression (MC). Methods This prospective, randomized, controlled study enrolled patients that had received transfemoral coronary artery angiography or percutaneous coronary intervention and then developed tunnel bleeding. They were randomly assigned into two groups: FOE suture group (ES group) and manual compression group (MC group). Total treatment time, performance frequency, performance time, rate of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and in-hospital time after the procedure were compared. Results A total of 152 patients were enrolled in the study (ES group, n = 63; MC group, n = 89). Compared with the MC group, the total treatment time (mean ± SD: ES 22.3 ± 5.4 h versus MC 26.8 ± 6.8 h), performance frequency (mean ± SD: ES 2.1 ± 0.7 versus MC 2.6 ± 1.1), performance time (mean ± SD: ES 8.9 ± 2.5 min versus MC 12.3 ± 4.1 min), in-hospital time after the procedure (mean ± SD: ES 3.5 ± 1.2 days versus MC 4.8 ± 2.1 days) and DVT rate (ES 0.0% versus MC 6.7%) were significantly lower in the ES group. Conclusion The FOE suture technique effectively treated tunnel bleeding after femoral artery puncture.
