Immediate protamine administration and sheath removal following percutaneous coronary intervention: A prospective study of 429 patients
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We tested the approach of reversing anticoagulation following PCI and immediate sheath removal in 429 consecutive patients. On completion of the PCI, protamine was administered, and the vascular sheath was immediately removed. Stents were used in 364 patients (85%) and GP IIb/IIIa inhibitors were used in 52 patients (12%). Time to achieve hemostasis was 30 +/- 17 min. Minor groin bleeding occurred in six patients. One patient required repair of femoral pseudoaneurysm. Mean creatine kinase at 8 and 16 hr post-PCI were 129 +/- 35 and 145 +/- 32 units, respectively. Creatine kinase rose to > 3 times normal in 12 out of 350 patients (3.4%). Prior to 48 hr, eight patients (1.9%) required emergency PCI or coronary bypass surgery. Follow-up at 30 days observed no deaths and only three target vessel revascularizations (0.7%). In conclusion, immediate reversal of anticoagulation and sheath removal after PCI is safe and feasible.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
