How to perform angiographic check after large-sheath removal in single access procedures

18 Mar 2024

In the absence of other arterial access, this step-by-step tutorial shows how to perform anterograde angiography of the arterial axis after removal of the large sheath, making it easier to recognise and rapidly manage vascular complications such as arterial lesions and haemostasis failure.
