  • Title: [Intra-femoral artery injections in a hospital angiology clinic].
    Author: Griton P.
    Journal: Phlebologie; 1979; 32(1):47-52. PubMed ID: 432289.
    Abstract:
    Intra-arterial injections of vasodilators are due to Henri Reboul. After a recent disfavor, the modern equipment together with a simple and detailed technique make it possible to easily do repeated injections. The only accidents are hematomas due to insufficient compression. Use of anticoagulants is the main counter-indication. Lidocain hydrochloride or pure scylocain 1% are the safest drugs. The antispasmodic papaverine, various vasodilators, antibiotics and heparin can be added. In out patient clinics, the rate of injections is one to three per week for a series of 10 injections at the most. Stage II arteritis is the ideal situation and successes are also found in stages III and IV. During the first visit for a acute phlebitis intra-arterial injection of scylocain with 100 mg. heparin makes it possible to start the necessary therapy with anticoagulants. The simple post-phlebitis venous edema seems a case in which the technique should be used.
