Jim,
In June of this year JVU published a paper called "Selective Use of
Duplex Ultrasound After Successful Thrombin Injection of
Pseudoaneurysms."  It contains info on the duplex guided thrombin
injections that may help you.
 
Sincerely,
Chris

Subject: A real oldie: thrombin injection vs. compression for
pseudoaneurysm
 
     I know this subject has been kicked around a lot, but we recently
got a new Medical Director who says that thrombin injection is not the
standard of care. He wants us to go back to compression of
pseudoaneurysms. My technical director asked me to see if I could get
some comments on this issue from other vascular labs. I would greatly
appreciate the group's input. Also was there a poll on compression vs
injection? If so, how can I access it. Many thanks!
 
                                                       Fraternally,
 
                                                       James M. Russell,
RVT
