• This type of procedure could be used alone to represent control of bleeding, but it could also be used along with another procedure that represents HOW the bleeding was controlled. THe most prominent among those is a procedure for Occlusion of the vessel -- which covers banding (e.g. of varices) and embolization (e.g. coil embolization).
