Protocol summary

Study aim
This study was conducted with the aim of designing and manufacturing an inflatable thigh strap and determining its effectiveness in preventing the complications of sheet removal after transfemoral coronary angiography.
Design
Clinical trial with a control group.not blindet,randomized
Settings and conduct
This randomized clinical trial was conducted in 2021. 80 patients undergoing elective transfemoral coronary angiography referred to 502 Heart and Vascular Hospital in Tehran were included in the study.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria included being alert, not suffering from hemophilia and coagulation disorders, age between 45 and 70 years, candidate for femoral angiography. The exit criteria are also: refusal to continue cooperation, the occurrence of complications such as bleeding, hematoma, and abnormal pain during the intervention, and use of painkillers or narcotics before, during, and after transfemoral coronary angiography.
Intervention groups
In the test group, an inflatable thigh starp was used to maintain hemostasis and prevent bleeding and hematoma immediately after the removal of the femoral sheath and hemostasis by hand in the Catheterization Laboratory by a trained nurse according to the protocol determined based on point pressure at the puncture site of the artery, the femoral was closed. The tourniquet was left in place for 4 to 6 hours and then opened. All procedures were performed under the supervision of a physician.
Main outcome variables
inflatable thigh starp, groin pain, back pain, feeling comfortable, hematoma, bleeding, leg pain, urinary incontinence

Randomization description
80 patients were included in the study by available sampling method and were divided into experimental and control groups based on the day of visit by coin toss. In this way, the patients who were visited on Sundays were included in the experimental group and they used an inflatable thigh strap, and the patients who visited on Mondays were in the control group and used sandbags according to the hospital routine.

Description of health condition studied
patients with coronary artery disease undergoing transfemoral coronary angiography
ICD-10 code
Y84.0
ICD-10 code description
Cardiac catheterization as the cause of abnormal reaction of the patient, or of later complication, without mention of misadventure at the time of the procedure

Primary outcomes

1

Description
Groin pain: groin pain refers to a feeling of discomfort in the area where the abdomen ends and the legs begin
Timepoint
Three trained and experienced nurses as researcher’s assistants using a chart (before and immediately after closing the FemoStop device, 15 minutes, one hour, two hours, two and a half hours, three hours, three hours and a half, four hours, four and a half hours, five hours, and six hours after closing the FemoStop device, totally of 12 times) recorded and reported all possible complications.
Method of measurement
The Visual Analog Scale will be used to measure groin pain. The Visual Analog Scale is used to measure pain. The visual analog scale is the evaluation of pain intensity as a 10 cm horizontal line numbered from 0 to 10 (zero indicates the absence of pain and 10 indicates the most severe pain possible)

2

Description
Hematoma: Localized bleeding outside the blood vessels, which occurs due to illness or trauma, including injury or surgery, and may lead to continued bleeding from broken capillaries. The hematoma is benign and initially spreads as fluid between tissues, including the interstitial sacs, which may coagulate and solidify in the blood vessels before reabsorption.
Timepoint
Three trained and experienced nurses as researcher’s assistants using a chart (before and immediately after closing the FemoStop device, 15 minutes, one hour, two hours, two and a half hours, three hours, three hours and a half, four hours, four and a half hours, five hours, and six hours after closing the FemoStop device, totally of 12 times) recorded and reported all possible complications.
Method of measurement
The Christensen scale was used to measure hematoma.

3

Description
leg pain: Prickle, cramping, fatigue and sometimes burning in the legs caused by poor blood circulation in the arteries of the legs
Timepoint
Three trained and experienced nurses as researcher’s assistants using a chart (before and immediately after closing the FemoStop device, 15 minutes, one hour, two hours, two and a half hours, three hours, three hours and a half, four hours, four and a half hours, five hours, and six hours after closing the FemoStop device, totally of 12 times) recorded and reported all possible complications.
Method of measurement
The Visual Analog Scale will be used to measure leg pain. The Visual Analog Scale is used to measure pain. The visual analog scale is the evaluation of pain intensity as a 10 cm horizontal line numbered from 0 to 10 (zero indicates the absence of pain and 10 indicates the most severe pain possible).

4

Description
Bleeding: Any bleeding that comes out of the circulatory system due to damage to the blood vessels is called bleeding. Bleeding may be due to vascular disorders, platelets, coagulation factors, coagulation inhibitors, exacerbation of fibrinolysis, or a combination of these factors. Typically, a healthy person can lose 10 to 15% of their total blood volume without serious medical problems. Tolerate.
Timepoint
Three trained and experienced nurses as researcher’s assistants using a chart (before and immediately after closing the FemoStop device, 15 minutes, one hour, two hours, two and a half hours, three hours, three hours and a half, four hours, four and a half hours, five hours, and six hours after closing the FemoStop device, totally of 12 times) recorded and reported all possible complications.
Method of measurement
En The amount of blood loss will be calculated based on the amount of bleeding based on the number of blood-soaked gases. Given that each 4 in 4 blood gasses in blood is about 10 ml of blood, then the amount of bleeding during 6 hours calculated by multiplying the number of gases collected in 10 Will take.

5

Description
prothrombin time (PT), Partial thromboplastin time (PTT), international normalized ratio (INR)
Timepoint
Before intervention
Method of measurement
Laboratory indicators were measured in the hospital laboratory.

6

Description
Hemodynamic indicators (systolic and diastolic blood pressure, temperature, respiratory rate, heart rate, and arterial oxygen saturation (Sao2))
Timepoint
Three trained and experienced nurses as researcher’s assistants using a chart (before and immediately after closing the FemoStop device, 15 minutes, one hour, two hours, two and a half hours, three hours, three hours and a half, four hours, four and a half hours, five hours, and six hours after closing the FemoStop device, totally of 12 times) recorded and reported all possible complications.
Method of measurement
The hemodynamic indicators of the patients were recorded by the monitoring device. The temperature was measured with a thermometer.

Description
Control group: according to the hospital routine, a sandbag was used instead of an inflatable thigh strap. The weight of the sandbag was 2.5 kg, which was placed in the puncture site of the femoral artery for 6 hours. In all stages, patients of the control group had to keep their legs straight. When the patient was in a semi-sitting position, a pillow was placed on the patient’s back.
