| Time to Ambulation | Ambulation was evaluated at any time after 1, 2 and 4 hours post sheath removal, until the subject was successfully ambulated. | Time to ambulation was recorded as the difference between the time the procedural sheath is removed from the femoral artery and the time when the subject stands and walks at least 20 feet without re-bleeding. |
