The MYNX CONTROL Vascular Closure Device (VCD) is designed to achieve femoral artery hemostasis via delivery of the GRIP TECHNOLOGYTM sealant, an extravascular, water-soluble synthetic hydrogel, using a balloon catheter in conjunction with a standard procedural sheath. The GRIP TECHNOLOGYTM sealant is made of a polyethylene glycol (PEG) material which expands upon contact with subcutaneous fluids to seal the arteriotomy. The sealant is resorbed by the body within 30 days.
The MYNX CONTROL VCD is supplied with a 10 ml locking syringe used for balloon inflation and deflation. The device contains no components manufactured from latex rubber. The 5F MYNX CONTROL VCD device has a gray sheath catch. The 6F/7F MYNX CONTROL VCD device has a green sheath catch.
