Bed Position and Head Elevation
The first group will remain in the supine position for 6 hours after the Angiography procedure, and the treated leg will be kept straight and immobile. Patients will not move their legs during this period. A sandbag weighing approximately 4 kg will be placed over the catheter dressing for 6 hours to prevent bleeding and subcutaneous blood accumulation. For the first two hours, the patient will lie on his back and on a flat surface with his legs extended straight. During the remaining 4 hours, investigators will monitor the patient's bed head by raising it 15 degrees intermittently under the supervision of the doctor, and at the end of the 6th hour, the sandbag on the leg will be removed. Blood pressure, pulse rate, respiratory rate, body temperature, as well as pain level will be measured every two hours.
