Hemostatic method

A hemostatic method, comprising:

• A) providing a main hemostatic element having a main geometric side and at least one auxiliary hemostatic element having an auxiliary geometric side;
• B) performing a hemostatic process including (1) applying an at-puncture hemostatic pressure to a puncture in a blood vessel via the main geometric side of the main hemostatic element, and (2) applying at least one off-puncture hemostatic pressure to at least one position away from the puncture via the at least one auxiliary geometric side of the at least one auxiliary hemostatic element, wherein the at least one off-puncture hemostatic pressure acts on the blood vessel directly or indirectly;
• and
• C) obtaining an initial flow velocity in the blood vessel prior to performing the hemostatic process, obtaining an ongoing flow velocity of blood in the blood vessel during the hemostatic process, and rendering the ongoing flow velocity lower than the initial flow velocity in the blood vessel by applying the at-puncture hemostatic pressure and the at least one off-puncture hemostatic pressure simultaneously, wherein the at-puncture hemostatic pressure and the at least one off-puncture hemostatic pressure are lower than a systolic pressure in the blood vessel.
