Summary: | ABSTRACT
Background and Aims
Femoral artery access is widely used despite recent increase in radial access for percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI). Femoral artery closure devices are used to shorten vascular closure time and reduce bleeding. We sought to examine sex‐based outcomes of femoral artery vascular closure devices (VCD) in patients undergoing PCI.
Methods
We identified patients who had undergone PCI (n = 11,415) in the Indiana University Health Multicenter Cardiac Cath registry using femoral artery access. Clinical outcomes were compared between VCD and manual compression and analyzed according to sex. Patients with cardiogenic shock and left ventricular support devices were excluded.
Results
The use of any vascular closure device as compared to femoral artery manual compression was associated with a reduction in 72‐h bleeding events (adjusted odds ratio [OR]: 0.64; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.46–0.87). With manual compression, women had higher rates of 72‐h bleeding as compared to men (4.5% vs. 1.6%, p |
