Figure-of-8 suture with a 3-way tap reduced access site complications compared to manual compression after atrial fibrillation ablation.
Does a Figure-of-8 suture with a 3-way tap reduce access site complications compared to manual compression in patients undergoing atrial fibrillation catheter ablation?
Following AF ablation, a Figure-of-8 suture with a 3-way tap reduces access site complications compared to manual compression, though reducing bed rest to 2 hours is not noninferior to 4 hours.
Tasa de eventos absoluta: 0% vs 0%
After AF catheter ablation, Fo8TAP was superior to MC in lowering the incidence of access site complications and was associated with health care efficiencies. However, a 2-hour bed rest strategy failed to meet noninferiority criteria versus 4 hours. (Haemostasis After Venous Access in Atrial Fibrillation Catheter Ablation HARNESS; NCT06470555).
