PropertyValue
?:definition
  • Vascular closure devices that utilize a suture(s) to mechanically close an arterial puncture (i.e., arteriotomy) and, in some cases, a venous puncture. They are designed to be percutaneously applied to an arteriotomy and/or venous puncture site, e.g., using a guide wire and delivery device. Typically, these devices are designed for use in the femoral artery and utilize a nonabsorbable suture such as a polyester surgical suture--these sutures are gradually encapsulated over time.
