Munazza Sikandar: Comparing Figure-of-Eight Sutures and Manual Compression for Safer Post-Ablation Care
Munazza Sikandar, Medical Student at Khyber Medical College, shared a post on LinkedIn about a recent article she and her colleagues co-authored, published in Journal of Thrombosis and Thrombolysis, adding:
“With the blessings of Allah Almighty, I am delighted to share that our research, ‘Comparative effectiveness of figure-of-eight suture and manual compression for femoral venous hemostasis after atrial fibrillation ablation: A grade assessed meta-analysis,’ has been published in the Journal of Thrombosis and Thrombolysis.
This achievement would not have been possible without the unwavering efforts, dedication, and mentorship of Zaryab Bacha and Mentavorium Academy.
I am truly grateful for their guidance and support throughout this journey.
Looking forward to contributing to many more impactful research projects.”
