2 Fig 1 The cadaver is prepared for pressurization. (A) A groin cutdown has been performed and the common femoral artery is exposed. A 1/4” Sims connector is attached to the femoral artery. (B) A water hose is attached to the Sims connector. (C) The clamp is removed and clot flows out of the femoral artery.
