A member asked:
How long do i have to remain still after a brain angiogram?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hours: You have to remain still to avoid bleeding at the site of the puncture for the catheter. If it is in the groin, the doctors may have used an artery closure device, and you can move after 3 hours. If they did not use a closure device, six hours is better.
