Method: We studied 128 patients who had undergone transradial angiography in our center from December 2009 to April 2010. Among them,64 patients were randomly treated with radial compression device ( TR-BAND,Terumo) when the procedure was over ( CD group) . The other 64 patients were dealt with chitosan ( CS group) . The compression time,the major and minor access site bleeding complications and the errhysis were observed. Results: There were no statistical differences in the baseline clinical characteristics of the patients between two groups. The compression time in CS group was significantly shorter than that of CD group ( P < 0. 001) . There were 12 patients suffering from minor access site bleeding while only 3 patients experienced these minor complications in CS group( 19% vs 4% ,P < 0. 05) . At the same time 20 patients had er- rhysis in CD group and 4 patients in CS group ( 31% vs 6% ,P < 0. 001) . Conclusion: Chitosan,compared to radial compression device ( TR-BAND,Terumo) ,can not only shorten the compression time,but also significantly reduce the rate of minor access site bleeding and puncture-site errhyis.展开更多
