Femoral artery compression system, manual, reusable

17 devices · GMDN 46367

A femoral artery compression system, manual, reusable is a noninvasive, non-powered device designed to apply pressure to the femoral artery puncture site after catheterization procedures to achieve haemostasis. It serves as an alternative to manual hand pressure and is typically used following coronary angiography, ventriculography, or percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA), and may also be used for brachial, radial artery access or post-venipuncture sites.

This category includes reusable devices that rely on manual operation and are secured in place using frames, bandages, or straps around the hips or thighs. The compressing element varies in design—such as discs, balls, domes, rollers, or inflatable bulbs—but all function without external power and are intended for repeated use after appropriate cleaning and disinfection.
