Groin dressing after cardiac catheterization. Comparison between light dressing with thin transparent tape (Tegaderm) and conventional tight/pressure dressing with an Elastic Adhesive Bandage (Tensoplast).
Journal of the Medical Association of Thailand Chotmaihet thangphaet, 2001Co-Authors: Sarana Boonbaichaiyapruck, P Hutayanon, P Chanthanamatta, T Dumrongwatana, N Intarayotha, V Krisdee, S YamvongAbstract:Post cardiac catheterization puncture site care is usually done with a tight pressure dressing by an Elastic Adhesive Bandage (Tensoplast) due to the belief that it should prevent bleeding. The practice is uncomfortable to the patients. The authors compared a new way of dressing using light transparent tape (Tegaderm) to the conventional tight pressure one. 126 post coronary angiography patients were randomized to have their groins dressed either with Tensoplast or with Tegaderm. Patients ambulated 8 hours after the procedures. The groin was evaluated for pain, discomfort and bleeding complications. 49 per cent in the Tensoplast vs 26.9 per cent in the Tegaderm group experienced pain (p value of 0.01). 55.5 per cent in the Tensoplast group vs 11.1 per cent in the Tegaderm group reported discomfort. 4.7 per cent in the Tensoplast vs 1.6 per cent in the Tegaderm group developed bleeding or hematoma. Dressing of the puncture site after cardiac catheterization with Tegaderm was more comfortable than the conventional Tensoplast without any difference in bleeding complications.

Journal of the Medical Association of Thailand, 2001Co-Authors: Sarana Boonbaichaiyapruck, P Hutayanon, P Chanthanamatta, T Dumrongwatana, V Krisdee, Nongrak Lntarayothan, S YamvongAbstract:Post cardiac catheterization puncture site care is usually done with a tight pressure dressing by an Elastic Adhesive Bandage (Tensoplasta¹€a¸˜ÂŽ) due to the belief that it should prevent bleeding. The practice is uncomfortable to the patients. The authors compared a new way of dressing using light transparent tape (Tegaderma¹€a¸˜ÂŽ) to the conventional tight pressure one. 126 post coronary angiography patients were randomized to have their groins dressed either with Tensoplasta¹€a¸˜ÂŽ or with Tegaderma¹€a¸˜ÂŽ. Patients ambulated 8 hours after the procedures. The groin was evaluated for pain, discomfort and bleeding complications. 49 per cent in the Tensoplasta¹€a¸˜ÂŽ vs 26.9 per cent in the Tegaderma¹€a¸˜ÂŽ group expe- rienced pain (p value of 0.01 ). 55.5 per cent in the Tensoplasta¹€a¸˜ÂŽ group vs 11.1 per cent in the Tegaderma¹€a¸˜ÂŽ group reported discomfort. 4.7 per cent in the Tensoplasta¹€a¸˜ÂŽ vs 1.6 per cent in the Tegaderma¹€a¸˜ÂŽ group developed bleeding or hematoma.
