Femoral Artery puncture

Brief summary

Clinical study in patients undergoing any intervention requiring vascular access to the femoral artery. The study compares Angio-Seal™ vs. Manual Compression with regard to control the vascular access. It is designed to demonstrate superiority of the Angio-Seal™ with an unchanged risk-profile.

Detailed description

Patients will have their puncture closure randomly performed by one of these approved methods: Angio-Seal™ Closure device or Manual Compression. Patients will be enrolled in the study during 12 months, with a follow-up period of 2 weeks (± 1 week). The randomization will be stratified according to the type of procedure.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of Patients With Mobilization Time Between 0-4 HoursAt dischargeMobilization Time is the time that patient gets the authorization to flex the leg, sit or walk.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Number of Patients With Any ComplicationsAt puncture closure procedure, at discharge and at follow up (2 weeks+/-1 week)Number of patients with any complications since the puncture closure until 2 weeks ± 1 week. The complications are related to the puncture closure evaluated at closure, discharge and follow-up. These include hematoma, Inferior limb ischemia, prolonged pain at puncture site, puncture site local infection, pseudoaneurysm, significant bleeding and vessel occlusion.
Number of Patients With Time to Hemostasis Between 0-4 MinutesAt puncture closureTime to hemostasis is the time from the beginning of closure procedure, until the physician take away their hands from the patient, regardless the closure procedure, and confirm the stop of bleeding.
Number of Patients With Mobilization Time Between 4-48 HoursAt dischargeMobilization Time is the time that patient gets the authorization to flex the leg, sit or walk.
Time to Discharge From Interventional Radiology DepartmentAt dischargeTime that the physician grants the patient the discharge order from the Radiology Department. If the patients has order to be hospitalized up to 24h after the puncture closure by the radiologist, then, the discharge from the radiology department will be 24h, even if the patient needs to continue hospitalized in other department.
Percentage of Patients With Angio-Seal™ Deployment SuccessAt puncture closureAccording the physician criteria, it will be YES If the anchor was deliver properly, the absorbable component remain in the correct point of the arterial puncture and no bleeding in the skin puncture.
Number of Patients With Time to Hemostasis Between 4-60 MinutesAt puncture closureTime to hemostasis is the time from the beginning of closure procedure, until the physician take away their hands from the patient, regardless the closure procedure, and confirm the stop of bleeding.
