vascular closure device
Vascular closure devices are medical devices used to achieve hemostasis of the small hole in the artery after a cardiovascular procedure of endovascular surgery requiring a catheterization.
Cardiovascular procedures requiring catheterization include diagnostic procedures that help diagnose diseased blood vessels and interventional procedures such as angioplasty, the placement of a stent and coronary thrombectomy.
During such procedures, a small incision is made in the groin area and a hole is created in the femoral artery to gain access to the artery. This hole is referred to as the access site or puncture site. At the completion of the procedure, the hole needs to be closed.
==Goals==
The main goal of a Vascular Closure Device is to provide rapid hemostasis of the artery as well as reduce access site complications.〔Maureen Leahy-Patano. Sealing the Deal at the Access Site. Diagnostic and Invasive Cardiology. May/June 2008〕 VCD's also help reduce time to ambulation and time to hospital discharge.〔Harold L. Dauerman MD FACC, et al. Vascular Closure Devices: The Second Decade. J Am Coll Cardiol. 2007;50(17)〕 In addition, VCD's are more comfortable for the patient compared to manual compression.
