Abstract

AIM: To assess the effects of bed rest duration on short-term complications following transfemoral catheterization. METHODS & RESULTS: A systematic search was carried out in MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Scopus, SciELO, and in five registries of grey literature. Randomized controlled trials and quasi-experimental studies comparing different duration of bed rest after transfemoral catheterization were included. Primary outcomes were hematoma and bleeding near the access site. Secondary outcomes were arteriovenous fistula, pseudoaneurysm, back pain, general patient discomfort and urinary discomfort. Study findings were summarized using a network meta-analysis (NMA).Twenty-eight studies and 9217 participants were included (mean age 60.4 years). In NMA, bed rest duration was not consistently associated with either primary outcome, and this was confirmed in sensitivity analyses. There was no evidence of associations with secondary outcomes, except for two effects related to back pain. A bed rest duration of 2-2.9 hours was associated with lower risk of back pain (RR 0.33, 95%CI 0.17-0.62), and a duration over 12 hours with greater risk of back pain (RR 1.94, 95%CI 1.16-3.24), when compared to the 4-5.9 hours interval. Post-hoc analysis revealed an increased risk of back pain per hour of bed rest (RR 1.08, 95%CI 1.04-1.11). CONCLUSIONS: A short bed rest was not associated with complications in patients undergoing transfemoral catheterization; the greater the duration of bed rest, the more likely patients were to experience back pain. Ambulation as early as 2 hours after transfemoral catheterization can be safely implemented. REGISTRATION: URL: https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero. Identifier: PROSPERO CRD42014014222.
