Abstract
Polydopamine (PDA) has been gradually applied in wound healing of various types in the last three years. Due to its rich phenol groups and unique structure, it can be combined with a variety of materials to form wound dressings that can be used for chronic infection, tissue repair in vivo and serious wound healing. PDA complex has excellent mechanical properties and self-healing properties, and it is a stable material that can be used for a long period of time. Unlike other dressings, PDA complexes can achieve both photothermal therapy and electro activity. In this paper, wound healing is divided into four stages: antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, cell adhesion and proliferation, and re-epithelialization. Photothermal therapy can improve the bacteriostatic rate and remove reactive oxygen species to inhibit inflammation. Electrical signals can stimulate cell proliferation and directional migration. With low reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, inflammatory factors are down-regulated and growth factors are up-regulated, forming regular collagen fibers and accelerating wound healing. Finally, five potential development directions are proposed, including increasing drug loading capacity, optimization of drug delivery platforms, improvement of photothermal conversion efficiency, intelligent electroactive materials and combined 3D printing.

Abstract
Cryogels with tissue adhesion have great potential as wound dressings for rapid hemostasis for uncontrollable nonpressing surface hemorrhage and wound healing, but their use has not been reported previously. Herein, we designed a series of antibacterial and antioxidant tissue-adhesive cryogels based on quaternized chitosan (QCS) and polydopamine (PDA). These cryogels had good blood cell and platelet adhesion, enrichment, and activation properties for rapid nonpressing surface hemostasis and wound healing. The cryogels exhibited outstanding mechanical strength and easy removability, antioxidant activity, and NIR photothermal-enhanced antibacterial performance. The cryogels showed much better hemostasis than gauze and gelatin sponge in a standardized strip rat liver injury model, a standardized circular rabbit liver section model, and a pig skin laceration model. Furthermore, the excellent hemostatic performance of the QCS/PDA2.0 cryogel (containing 20 mg/mL QCS and 2.0 mg/mL PDA) for coagulopathic hemorrhages was confirmed in a standardized coagulation disorder rabbit circular liver section model. In addition, the QCS/PDA2.0 cryogel promoted rapid hemostasis in a deep noncompressible wound and a much better wound healing effect than a chitosan sponge and Tegaderm film in a full-thickness skin defect model. Overall, these multifunctional tissue-adhesive cryogels with excellent hemostatic performance and enhanced wound healing properties are suitable candidates for tissue-adhesive hemostat and wound healing dressings.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Vascular access site complications after percutaneous transfemoral cardiovascular procedures remain a common cause of morbidity and mortality. We evaluated the SiteSeal® VCD for achieving hemostasis following diagnostic cardiac catheterization. METHODS We conducted a prospective case control single center study to assess the safety and efficacy of SiteSeal® VCD compared to standard manual compression following diagnostic cardiac catheterization. Forty patients were enrolled in study to receive either SiteSeal® device or manual compression (20 in each group). RESULTS Patients in the SiteSeal® group achieved hemostasis in a significantly shorter time (4 ± 2.4 vs. 19 ± 2.4 min, P < 0.001), had shorter time from hemostasis to ambulation (95 ± 44 vs. 388 ± 63 min, P < 0.001) and significantly earlier device deployment to discharge time compared to the manual compression group (4.7 ± 1.1 vs. 8.9 ± 4.8 h, P = 0.001). There was one non-major bleeding event in the SiteSeal® group which occurred >24 h after discharge from the hospital and was managed conservatively. In the remaining device patients, there was no clinical or Doppler ultrasound evidence of major or minor vascular complication with good overall patient comfort at discharge, 7 days and 30 days follow-up. CONCLUSIONS In this first clinical experience, the SiteSeal® VCD achieved safe and efficient hemostasis, allowed for earlier ambulation and faster discharge compared to manual compression.

Abstract
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the hemostatic efficacy of a novel femoral artery compression device in patients undergoing an interventional procedure through femoral artery puncture.Material and methods: Patients enrolled in this trial were randomly assigned 1:1 to the novel femoral artery compression device (NFACD) or the manual compression (MC) group. The primary endpoints were time to hemostasis (TTH), time to ambulation (TTA), any other complications, such as the occurrence of hematoma, bleeding, pseudoaneurysm and arteriovenous fistula at the puncture site, and time to hospital discharge.Results: A total of 617 patients were included in this study (NFACD, n = 308 versus MC, n = 309) from May 2017 to September 2019, and the baseline characteristics of the groups were similar. We found that the TTH and TTA were significantly shorter in the NFACD group than in the MC group (4.4 ± 11.6 min vs. 20.1 ± 22.5 min; p < 0.001; 8.9 ± 14.2 h vs. 16.3 ± 27.5 h; p = 0.002). There were few other complications in either group. In addition, there was no significant difference in time to hospital discharge between the NFACD group and the MC group.Conclusion: The novel femoral artery compression device is effective in achieving hemostasis in patients undergoing femoral artery puncture and is associated with a marked shortening of the TTH and TTA.

Abstract
Although peripheral nerve injuries secondary to angiography and endovascular interventions are uncommon and usually not permanent, they can result in significant functional impairment. Most arteries used in access for angiography and endovascular therapies lie in close proximity to a nerve. The nerve may be injured by needle puncture, or by compression from hematoma, pseudoaneurysm, hemostasis devices, or by manual compression with incidence in literature ranging from as low as 0.04% for femoral access in a large retrospective study to 9% for brachial and axillary access. Given the increasing frequency of endovascular arterial procedures and the increasing use of nontraditional access points, it is important that the interventionalist have a working knowledge of peripheral nerve anatomy and function as it relates to relevant arterial access sites to avoid injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vascular complications from resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta (REBOA) have been reported in as high as 13% with some patients requiring lower-extremity amputation. We sought to review our institution series of REBOA and assess our vascular complications. METHODS Retrospective review of all patients undergoing REBOA from October 2011 through July 2016. Data were gathered from the Memorial Hermann Trauma Registry and the hospital electronic medical records. Operative details and vascular injuries from arterial access for REBOA insertion were recorded. RESULTS Forty-eight patients underwent REBOA during our study period. Thirty-eight had the 14 Fr. system placed and 10 had the 7 Fr. system placed. Of the 24 surviving the removal of the 14 Fr. sheath, 19 had primary repair of the arteriotomy without vascular complication. The other five required additional vascular procedures to repair arteriotomy with no lower-extremity amputations. There were no vascular complications of sheath removal with the 7 Fr. system, with no amputations. CONCLUSION Implementation of REBOA can be done safely without increased risk of vascular access complications or limb loss. The 14 Fr. system will more likely require further vascular procedures to address the access site, whereas the 7 Fr. system will not. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Therapeutic/care management, level II.

Abstract
Introduction Advantages of vascular closure device over manual compression include patient comfort, early mobilisation and discharge, avoidance of interruption of anticoagulation, avoidance of local compression and its sequelae and less time constraint on staff. No published Indian data exist regarding Perclose Proglide suture mediated vascular closure device (SMC). Aim To study the 24 h and 30 day outcome of Perclose Proglide SMC retrospectively. Study design Retrospective observational study conducted in the Department of Cardiology, Government Medical College, Calicut, Kerala from June 2013 to June 2015. Methodology All consecutive patients with Perclose Proglide SMC deployment done by a single operator for achieving access site haemostasis where 24 h and 30 day post-procedure data were available were included. Major and minor complications, procedure success, device failure were predefined. Results 323 patients were analysed. Procedure success rate was 99.7% (322/323). Transient oozing occurred in 44 patients (13.6%), minor and major complications occurred in 2% and 1.5% of patients respectively. Major complication included one case of retroperitoneal bleed, one access site infection, one pseudo aneurysm formation and two access site arterial stenosis. There was no death or complication requiring limb amputation. “Preclose” technique was used successfully in six patients. Primary device failure occurred in 12 cases which were tackled successfully with second Proglide in all except one. Conclusion Perclose Proglide SMC is a safe and effective method to achieve haemostasis up to 22F with less complication rate.

Abstract
Endovascular repair of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysms (EVAR) has become a widely accepted treatment modality. The conventional approach of an EVAR involves bilateral groin incisions to expose the femoral arteries followed by introducer sheath placement, which is typically performed with the use of general or epidural anesthesia. As technology trends toward less invasive methods and sheath sizes become smaller, the use of a total percutaneous approach to endovascular repair of aortic pathology is becoming more common. In this review, we present a brief history of percutaneous closure devices for common femoral artery access, factors important in patient selection, the technique of performing a percutaneous EVAR procedure, early and late complications, and overall outcomes of percutaneous approaches for the endovascular treatment of aortic pathology.

Abstract
Percutaneous-based procedures continue to increase as endovascular techniques improve and provide a less morbid approach than the open vascular procedures. The most common complications associated with either cardiac interventions or peripheral interventions involve the access point of the procedure. The retrograde femoral access has and is currently the most frequently used arterial access. Vascular surgeons have been responsible for management of complications following femoral-based procedures and now are a significant contributor to catheter-based diagnostic and interventional procedures. This review provides in-depth review of the literature on specific complications encountered during percutaneous femoral artery puncture. This review includes access complications related to the method of obtaining access (ie, best pulse fluoroscopic guided), direction of access either retrograde or antegrade, risk factors and incidence of complications based on best literature sources, and management strategies for specific complications.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the feasibility and safety of vascular closure device (VCD) deployment outside the catheterization laboratory. METHODS Medical records were reviewed of all 799 patients (396 men; mean age 56 ± 16 years) who underwent deployment of 918 VCDs following diagnostic or therapeutic neurointerventional procedures over a 2-year period at 2 comprehensive stroke centers. The rates of major vascular complications in patients undergoing VCD deployment in and outside the catheterization laboratory were compared. Major vascular complications were adjudicated using definitions by the Society of Interventional Radiology; comparisons were made between different procedure types and closure devices. RESULTS During the observation period, 103 (11.2%) of 918 VCD deployments were performed outside the catheterization laboratory. Age, gender, procedure type, and device types were not different between the groups. A total of 10 (1.1%) major vascular complications occurred, including dissection requiring angioplasty (n = 1), hematoma requiring blood transfusion (n = 4), pseudoaneurysm requiring thrombin injection (n = 2), and lower limb ischemia necessitating surgical removal of the VCD (n = 3). Rates of major vascular complications were not significantly different between VCDs deployed inside the catheterization laboratory [1.0% (8/815)] compared to outside [1.9% (2/103), p = 0.3]. CONCLUSION VCD deployment outside the catheterization laboratory does not increase the rate of major vascular complications and may be an alternative approach for femoral artery hemostasis when VCD deployment needs to be deferred.

Abstract
Percutaneous vascular closure devices are being increasingly used as alternatives to manual compression for the closure of femoral arteriotomy after endovascular procedures as they appear to reduce time to ambulate, improve patient's comfort, and are implicated with cost saving. However, vascular closure devices have been associated with an increased risk of complications including hematoma formation, local bleeding, arteriovenous fistula formation, pseudoaneurysm and arterial leg ischemia. To our knowledge, if the above complications occur it is usually within the first 30 days after the procedure. None have been reported in a delayed fashion ten months or longer after closure. We describe a 30-year-old man with a history of a giant basilar trunk aneurysm. He was placed on aspirin and clopidogrel prior to the procedure. He had bilateral femoral access with 6 French sheaths. Following the procedure, 6 French Angio-Seals (St. Jude Medical, St. Paul, MN, USA) were used for closure of bilateral femoral arteriotomies. Ten months after the procedure, the patient kicked a metal cart and developed a large right retroperitoneal iliopsoas hematoma. There was no evidence of pseudoaneurysm. The patient was managed conservatively and his serial hematocrit stayed stable. He did not require surgical intervention. Use of percutaneous vascular closure devices is associated with complications including risk of hematoma, pseudoaneurysm, intravenous fistula, rectal peritoneal hemorrhage, limb ischemia and possible surgical repair. Most complications occur peri-procedure or within 30 days post-procedure. This is the first reported case of a delayed complication at ten months after the initial procedure. Site-related complications associated with percutaneous vascular closure devices may occur in a delayed fashion, even ten months post-procedure, so should be considered in the management of patients.

Abstract
Uterine fibroid embolization (UFE) is an increasingly popular, minimally invasive treatment option for women with symptomatic fibroid disease. UFE therapy in qualified hands is an effective, well-tolerated procedure that offers relief of fibroid symptoms with a low risk of complications. In the acute postprocedural period, immediate complications may relate to vascular access, thromboembolic events, infection, and pain management. Reported major complications include but are not limited to pulmonary embolus, uterine ischemia, necrosis, sepsis, and death. Non-life-threatening complications include altered ovarian and sexual function, subcutaneous tissue necrosis, expulsion of fibroid tissue, and treatment failure. Awareness of the known complications of UFE may allow more rapid diagnosis and effective therapeutic responses to complications when they occur.

[PMID: 22933896 PMCID: PMC3423686 DOI: 10.2478/v10019-010-0021-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2010] [Accepted: 03/22/2010] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Most of the presently used percutaneous arterial closure devices (PACD) for hemostasis after interventional vascular procedures are effective, but carry risk of complications by deposition of a foreign body. A new promising externally applied PACD - chitosan-based HemCon Bandage (HCB) was explored in sheep. The HCB hemostatic efficacy and complications occurring with its use were compared to those with the standard manual compression (SMC). MATERIAL AND METHODS Both superficial femoral arteries (SFA) of 9 heparinized sheep were catheterized with an 8F sheath for 5 minutes. After the sheath withdrawal, hemostasis with the HCB was compared with hemostasis achieved with SMC in the contralateral SFA. Iliac angiograms performed by carotid artery approach determined the hemostasis time. RESULTS The HCB use shortened time to hemostasis with a mean time of 6.9 ± 3.9 minutes versus 10.8 ± 2.8 minutes for the SMC (P-value 0.019). Seven SFAs in the HCB group and only 1 SFA in the SMC group exhibited hemostasis in 5 minutes. All nine SFAs using the HCB showed femoral artery patency and demonstrated less hematoma (2/9) than in the SMC group (8/9). No complications developed in the HCB group, one SFA occlusion was seen in the SMC group. CONCLUSIONS The externally applied HCB in heparinized sheep was safe and effective. It significantly shortened time to hemostasis at the SFA access sites following 8F sheath removal. Proper application of the HCB was necessary to shorten hemostasis and prevent hematoma formation. The HCB should be tested in a clinically controlled study to evaluate its efficacy in humans.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vascular closure devices (VCDs) are effective in reducing the time to ambulation for patients undergoing cardiac catheterization procedures and in reducing the risk of vascular complications in selected patient cohorts. However, the frequency and consequence of failure of VCDs is not well defined. METHODS AND RESULTS From a prospective registry of consecutive patients undergoing cardiac catheterization at our center, 9823 patients who received either a collagen plug-based (Angio-Seal) or a suture-based (Perclose) VCD were selected for the study. VCD failure was defined as unsuccessful deployment or failure to achieve hemostasis. Major vascular complication was defined as any retroperitoneal hemorrhage, limb ischemia, or any surgical repair. Minor vascular complication was defined as any groin bleeding, hematoma (> or = 5 cm), pseudoaneurysm, or arteriovenous fistula. Any vascular complication was defined as either a major or minor vascular complication. Among the 9823 patients in the study, VCD failed in 268 patients (2.7%; 2.3% diagnostic versus 3.0% percutaneous coronary intervention; P=0.029). Patients with VCD failure had significantly increased risk of any (6.7% versus 1.4%; P<0.0001), major (1.9% versus 0.6%; P=0.006), or minor (6.0% versus 1.1%; P<0.0001) vascular complication compared with the group with successful deployment of VCD. The increased risk of vascular complication was unchanged in a propensity score-matched cohort. CONCLUSIONS In contemporary practice, VCD failure is rare, but when it does fail, it is associated with a significant increase in the risk of vascular complications. Patients with VCD failure should be closely monitored.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We studied the safety and efficacy of the Cardiva Boomerang Catalyst vascular closure system in pediatric patients after cardiac catheterization with access in femoral and internal jugular vessels. BACKGROUND Recurrent catheterization and advances in pediatric interventions increase the need for easy hemostasis without a residual foreign body that may prevent re-accessing the vessel. The Boomerang can be deployed in sheaths as small as 4Fr without residual foreign body, with minimal orientation needed, and few complications reported. METHODS In a two-month period, all patients between 18 months and 21 years old catheterized with 4-8Fr sheaths less than 15 cm long were eligible for Boomerang placement. These were compared retrospectively with control patients with manual hemostasis. Anthropomorphic measurements, procedure type, activated clotting time, and sheath size as well as total times of cases, intubation, hemostasis, and extubation were compared between the two groups. RESULTS Forty-six Boomerangs were deployed in 31 patients and compared with 40 patients with manual hemostasis. Boomerangs were deployed in femoral vessels and the internal jugular vein. Device success with hemostasis was achieved in 39 patients (85%). There were no significant differences in time to hemostasis or extubation between the two groups. No major complications or operator error occurred, including hematoma, transfusion, retroperitoneal bleed, infection, vessel occlusion, or need for surgery. CONCLUSIONS The Boomerang is a safe and easy means of achieving hemostasis in the pediatric population, in femoral vessels as well as internal jugular veins. Its times to hemostasis and extubation were not significantly different from manual hold.

Abstract
AIM To audit the safety of day-case peripheral arterial intervention without the use of arterial-closure devices using nurse-led admission, discharge, and follow-up procedures. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients referred for elective, peripheral vascular intervention were selected for day-case care according to pre-determined criteria using telephone triage. Post-procedure haemostasis was achieved using manual compression. After 3h bed-rest, patients were mobilized and discharged at 5h. Patients were contacted by telephone next working day to audit complications. RESULTS One hundred and eighty-three elective day-case peripheral interventions were performed over 2 years, predominantly using 6 F sheaths. No closure devices were used. Five patients (2%) returned to the department because of persistent groin symptoms the next day. One of these had a false aneurysm. Four required no further treatment. A single patient returned at day 6 with a delayed false aneurysm. CONCLUSION Day-case peripheral vascular intervention can be safely performed in appropriately selected patients without the use of arterial closure devices. Specialist radiology nurses have a major role in the counselling, care, and follow-up of these patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION We evaluated the safety and efficacy of the Angio-Seal closure device used to close arterial puncture sites in patients who had undergone diagnostic cerebral angiography and neurointerventional procedures. METHODS A total of 1,443 Angio-Seal devices were placed in 1,099 patients in the Interventional Neuroradiology Unit between May 2005 and August 2006. Of these, 670 were interventional and 745 were diagnostic cerebral angiographic procedures. In 28 patients bilateral puncture of the femoral arteries was performed for endovascular treatment. In 167 patients 286 repeat diagnostic procedures were performed and 30 interventional procedures were followed by re-closure with an Angio-Seal device at the time of repeat puncture. RESULTS The procedural success rate for antegrade closures was 99.7% for all procedures. The device failed in 5 of 745 diagnostic procedures (0.7%). Major complication occurred in one patient only (0.13%) in the diagnostic group. No minor complications were observed in this group. In the interventional group, the major complication rate was 1.4% (10 of 698 closures) and the minor complication rate was 2.4% (17 of 698 closures). However, in the subgroup of patients with cerebral aneurysms who received heparin in combination with antiplatelet agents after the procedure, the major complication rate was 5.3%, but in the carotid/vertebral stenting group it was 0.8%. CONCLUSION Our experience in a relatively large series of patients shows that the use of the Angio-Seal STS vascular closure device is safe and effective in patients undergoing cerebral diagnostic angiography and neurointerventional procedures with an acceptable rate of complications, although the complication rate was higher in the group of patients who received heparin and/or antiplatelet medication.

Abstract
AIM To review our practice of outpatient percutaneous vascular interventions facilitated by an arterial suture device. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective review of all patients attending this tertiary centre for iliac or femoral intervention was undertaken between February 2001 and December 2004. All patients who underwent angioplasty or stenting had their puncture sites closed using a Perclose suture. Patients were kept flat for 15min and allowed to fully mobilize at 60min. Puncture sites were scored for visible bruising, haematoma and pain at discharge and on outpatient follow-up. Patient preference for future outpatient treatment was assessed. RESULTS Fifty-seven outpatients underwent 81 punctures. Forty-eight (84%) patients underwent iliac angioplasty; of those 42% underwent stent placement. Six patients (10%) required inpatient admission, five secondary to failed suture deployment. One patient had a non-closer-related puncture site intimal flap occlusion successfully repaired at surgery. Fifty-one (90%) patients discharged with a mean time of 157min (60-280min). Forty-six (92%) patients had no visible bruising or palpable haematoma on discharge. No patient had a haematoma greater than 2.5cm. No discharged patient required readmission. Thirty percent reported a moderate to severe groin pain score (2-5/5) at discharge, increasing to 40% at follow-up. Forty-seven (98%) of the 48 patients, who expressed a preference, would be happy to undergo outpatient treatment again. CONCLUSION Outpatient treatment is feasible, well tolerated and preferable to patients, but 10% will require inpatient admission. A planned post-procedure analgesia regimen or advice should be considered.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Percutaneous closure devices have been used to obtain rapid hemostasis and early mobilization of the patient after arterial catheterization. However, we observed challenging problems with the sealing procedure that require further surgical intervention. The present report is a retrospective analysis of the patterns of injury and the final outcome of four cases of femoral artery injury following the use of Angio-Seal. METHODS During the last 24 months, in a group of 175 patients (131 men, 44 women; median age 68.4 years, range 47-81 years) underwent percutaneous closure after diagnostic (n = 53) or therapeutic (n = 122) endovascular procedures. Among them we observed four patients (three men, one woman; median age 65.2 +/- 10.8 years, range 47-75 years) who developed severe limiting claudication and required vascular repair of an iatrogenic vascular injury following deployment of the Angio-Seal. They had a femoral thrombosis due to narrowing/severe intimal dissection. RESULTS All patients required operative intervention with removal of the device. We performed femoropopliteal thrombectomy and common femoral endarterectomy with patch angioplasty (n = 2), resection of the femoral bifurcation and reimplantation of the deep femoral artery (n = 1), and femoral bifurcation endarterectomy with direct arterial suture (n = 1). The median hospital stay was 6.5 +/- 3.8 days (range 4-12 days). Limb salvage was achieved in all of the surviving patients at a mean follow-up of 7 months (range 1-12 months). CONCLUSIONS Vascular injuries are uncommon after use of the hemostasis closure device. When they occur, however, they are likely to require challenging surgical correction.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the efficacy and safety of a novel hemostatic wound dressing designed for rapid hemostasis at arterial puncture sites. METHODS Over a 15-month period, 209 consecutive patients were randomized to conventional manual compression (n=105) or the use of the Clo-Sur P.A.D. hemostatic device (n=104) after removal of the sheath. Puncture-related and device-related complications, time to hemostasis, time to ambulation, and patient and physician discomfort were recorded. RESULTS In 209 patients, 21 (10.0%) puncture-related complications were observed, including 11 (5.3%) pseudoaneurysms, 9 (4.3%) hematomas, and 1 (0.5%) major bleeding complication. There was no significant difference (p=0.36) in complications between the hemostatic device (9/104, 8.7%) and the conventional group (12/105, 11.4%). In the hemostatic device group compared to the conventional group, respectively, the average time to hemostasis (13.6 versus 20.3 minutes; p<0.001), time to ambulation (6.5 versus 17.4 hours, p<0.001), patient discomfort (VAS 2.1 versus 4.7, p<0.001), and physician discomfort (VAS 3.8 versus 5.2, p<0.001) were significantly lower. Twenty (19%) sheath removals in the hemostatic device group were classified as a technical failure of the device. CONCLUSION The use of this hemostatic wound dressing for arterial access site management after percutaneous vascular procedures significantly reduced the time to hemostasis, enabled early mobilization, and reduced patient discomfort without increasing the risk for complications compared to conventional manual compression. A high rate of technical failures, however, warrants further improvement before routine use can be recommended.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The StarClose Vascular Closure System is a femoral access site closure technology that uses a flexible nitinol clip to complete a circumferential, extravascular arteriotomy close. The Clip CLosure In Percutaneous Procedures study was initiated to study the safety and efficacy of the StarClose device in subjects undergoing diagnostic and interventional catheterization procedures. METHODS A total of 17 U.S. sites enrolled 596 subjects, with 483 subjects randomized at a 2:1 ratio to receive StarClose or standard compression of the arteriotomy after the percutaneous procedure. The study included roll-in (n = 113), diagnostic (n = 208), and interventional (n = 275) arms with a primary safety endpoint of major vascular complications through 30 days and a primary efficacy endpoint of postprocedure time to hemostasis. RESULTS The results of the diagnostic StarClose cohort have been reported separately. Results for the interventional arm revealed major vascular complications occurring in 1.1% of StarClose subjects (2/184) and 1.1% in manual compression subjects (1/91; P = 1.00). No infections were seen in either cohort. Minor complications in the StarClose interventional group occurred at a rate of 4.3% (8/184) and with compression at 9.9% (9/91; P = 0.107). Pseudoaneurysm or arteriovenous fistula was not seen with StarClose. With StarClose, procedural success was 100% (136/136) for the diagnostic group and 98.9% (181/183) in the interventional group. Device success for the treatment group was 86.8%. In the interventional cohort, 87.3% (158/181) of StarClose subjects reported a pain scale of 0-3 compared with 93.3% (84/90) in the compression group, which was not statistically different. CONCLUSIONS The clinical results of this study demonstrate that the StarClose Vascular Closure System is noninferior to manual compression with respect to the primary safety endpoint of major vascular events in subjects who undergo percutaneous interventional procedures. StarClose significantly reduced time to hemostasis, ambulation, and dischargeability when compared with compression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mechanical closure of percutaneous femoral arteriotomies following catheter based procedures remains problematic. METHODS The EVS closure device is the first to utilize a staple to effect arteriotomy closure and was compared to manual compression following sheath removal in a 362 patient randomized (2:1 to device) multicenter trial. As pre-specified, one half of the patients underwent coronary intervention. RESULTS Time to hemostasis was significantly reduced in the EVS group for both diagnostic (3.3 +/- 2.6 vs. 19.3 +/- 5.7 minutes; p < 0.001) and interventional procedures (5.5 +/- 5.1 vs. 22.3 +/- 9.9 minutes; p < 0.0001). Time to ambulation was similarly reduced in the EVS group following diagnostic (2.4 +/- 3.3 vs. 6.0 +/- 5.2 hours; p < 0.001) and interventional procedures (3.4 +/- 4.5 vs. 7.6 +/- 7.0 hours; p < 0.001). The incidence of major complications was similar between the EVS and manual compression groups at discharge (0.4% vs. 1.7%; p = NS) and at 30 day follow-up (0.4% vs. 2.5%; p = NS). CONCLUSION Compared to manual compression, the EVS device provides a safe and effective method of femoral artery closure.

Abstract
PURPOSE The use of suture-mediated closure devices (SMCDs) in patients undergoing uterine artery embolization (UAE) for symptomatic leiomyomata is controversial. With recent literature suggesting a higher complication rate with the use of SMCDs, their use in this specific population has been questioned. The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of SMCDs specifically for those patients undergoing UAE for symptomatic uterine leiomyomata. MATERIALS AND METHODS A prospective database was established in a single high-volume medical center for patients undergoing UAE for symptomatic leiomyomata. Data were tracked prospectively, with technical outcome and complication rates serving as endpoints. RESULTS UAE was performed in 342 consecutive patients from January 2001 to September 2003. The SMCD was used in 328 of these patients (96%). Successful primary hemostasis was achieved in 320 of 328 patients (97%), with additional manual compression required in the remaining eight patients (3%). No major complications were observed. Minor complications consisted of minor hematomas in four women (1%) and anteriomedial thigh pain in 68 women (21%) within 1 month of follow-up, resulting in an overall complication rate of 22%. All symptoms related to anteromedial thigh pain ipsilateral to the arterial puncture site were managed conservatively with 1 week of oral nonsteroidal antiinflammatory medication. CONCLUSION The SMCD provided safe and effective hemostasis in patients undergoing UAE. Transient thigh discomfort, which may result from irritation of the anterior femoral cutaneous nerves (femoral neuralgia syndrome), was uniformly relieved with nonsteroidal antiinflammatory therapy.
