Feasibility and effectiveness of a novel vascular hemostatic device (Chula-clamp) after coronary angiography or percutaneous coronary intervention.

Background: Chula-clamp is a newly hydraulic vascular hemostatic device. The advantages of the device are convenience, reusability, and lessen patient discomfort and vascular complication. Furthermore, the device is assembled with a recycled balloon inflator and other locally made components, which make it less expensive than other commercially available hemostatic devices.
