Ultrasound-guided thrombin injection as a preferable method of treatment for iatrogenic pseudoaneurysms after invasive cardiovascular procedures - a single-center experience.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionArterial cannulation is inherently associated with a risk of vascular complications including pseudoaneurysm (psA) that are encountered in both radial and femoral artery access. Among various methods of treatment of pseudoaneurysm the most popular are: watchful waiting for a spontaneous resolution, ultrasound-guided compression, ultrasound-guided thrombin injection (UGTI) and surgical treatment. In many previous reports nonsurgical methods appeared to be effective in most cases.
aimTo evaluate the incidence, characteristics as well as treatment scheme of iatrogenic pseudoaneurysms in a single high-volume cardiovascular intervention center. MATERIAL AND
methodsThe study is a prospective analysis of femoral artery and radial artery pseudoaneurysm cases in a 6-year period (2015-2020) in Świętokrzyskie Cardiology Centre in Kielce, Poland. Analysis of baseline characteristics, treatment and outcomes of all pseudoaneurysm cases was performed.
resultsAmong a total number of 7268 cardiovascular procedures, with 49.2% being of the radial approach, we diagnosed 113 cases of psA. Global prevalence of femoral artery pseudoaneurysm was 1.29% and that of radial artery pseudoaneurysm was 0.30%. Only 2 patients with femoral puncture were primarily qualified for surgical treatment due to large size of the pseudoaneurysm. The vast majority of patients underwent successful nonsurgical therapy with the major predominance of the UGTI procedure. Effectiveness of the first thrombin injection was as high as 90% in RPA and 85% in FPA, whereas all of the consecutive attempts were successful.
conclusionsUGTI is nowadays a very effective and safe method of iatrogenic pseudoaneurysm treatment that prevents further necessary surgical procedures.
