SUTURE-MEDIATED CLOSURE FOR BOTH FEMORAL ARTERIAL AND VENOUS ACCESS SITES
Perclose ProGlide™ Suture-Mediated Closure (SMC) System delivers a secure, non-masking percutaneous suture to the access site that promotes primary healing1 and has no reaccess restrictions.
This system has the broadest arterial and venous indication*; it can be utilized for 5-21F2 (Max. 26F OD4) arterial sheaths and 5-24F3 (Max. 29F OD4) venous sheaths. Abbott’s Perclose ProGlide™ SMC System also offers the following benefits:
- Reduced time to hemostasis, ambulation and discharge6,10
- Ability to challenge and confirm closure complete hemostasis on the table
- Minimized inflammatory response7
- Significantly lower blood transfusions, infections, mortality and shorter length of stay compared to surgical cutdown for large-bore arterial access8
- Low major access site-related complications for large-bore venous access9
