I have a question. Some times we want to continue the heparin infusion for example in thrombotic cases. Can we use this closure device to maintain the heparin or IIBIIIA Inhibitors infusion?

Thanks for the nice and Informative video.
What do you do when using a 5 French sheath for diagnostic angiography. Do you use a 6 French AngioSeal as well?

[@ramikafa]

Yes

[@manosbrilakis]

When 5 French catheters are used we typically hold manual pressure.

[@himanshutanwar3636]

After how much duration of using this device you can move the Limb?

Do you use antibiotics?

[@manosbrilakis]

We do not give antibiotics in patients who have femoral access closure post cardiac cath.
