Abstract

Background and purpose: One of the most important complications of post coronary artery angioplasty is hemorrhage and HEMATOMA. In Iran initial hemostasis is done by hand pressure in puncture site and use of sand bag and absolute immobility to maintain hemostasis. Sand bag pressure and immobility can cause considerable discomfort for patients. To reduce the complications after coronary artery angioplasty this study aimed to determine the effects of sand bags and air cushions.Material and Methods: This quasi-experimental study was performed in 80 patients candidate for angioplasty, based on inclusion and exclusion criteria who were randomly selected and randomly assigned into two groups of sandbag and air cushion. Complications after angioplasty including low BACK PAIN, FATIGUE, and INGUINAL DISCOMFORT were evaluated in both groups during a six hour rest.Results: There was no significant difference between the two groups in severity of BACK PAIN, FATIGUE, and discomfort in the groin immediately following the removal of the sheath. However, in later stages a significant difference was observed in sandbag group (P<0.001). This group had to receive more narcotics to relieve the pain (P=0.0025). There was no significant difference in the incidence of HEMATOMA between the two groups (P=0.314).Conclusion: This study showed that applying air cushion to the femoral artery puncture site could lead to the possible position change in bed, no increase in HEMATOMA and bleeding, significant reduction of BACK PAIN, patient comfort, and reduction in prescription of analgesics.
