I work on an outpatient interventional unit in a moderately sized hospital. Currently, our "policy" is to do post sheath removal vital signs q15min x4,q30min x2, then hourly x4. This seems excessive-especially after just venous sheath removals from ablations. The bedrest is up before the vital signs! I'm interested in what other hospitals do--provided it is an uncomplicated sheath removal, and manual compression is used. Thanks!
