Safety and efficacy of hybrid vascular closure technique using both a suture‐ and collagen‐mediated closure device after transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve implantation
2019
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the clinical utility and feasibility of a hybrid technique for obtaining vascular hemostasis by combining a suture- and a collagen-mediated system after transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TF TAVI) in a real-world setting. METHODS: In 75 consecutive TF TAVI procedures, we investigated a hybrid closing method to achieve hemostasis at the large bore puncture site using a combination of one presuture closure system (ProGlide) and one collagen-mediated system (Angio-Seal). Vascular complications at puncture site were recorded until discharge. RESULTS: Successful hemostasis by the hybrid technique was achieved in 74 out of 75 patients, and the method was well tolerated by all patients. In 73 patients, (97.3%) neither puncture site related complications nor serious early or late bleedings were observed during a median hospital stay of 2 days postprocedure. CONCLUSION: This single-center registry study indicates that a percutaneous hybrid closure technique is safe and efficacious in closing large bore arteriotomies. It is an easy and reliable technique that may contribute to simplifying TAVI procedures. STUDY REGISTRATION: The data was collected from an internal quality control registry on treatment of patients with valvular heart disease with or without coronary artery disease, No 2014/17280, Oslo University Hospital, Ulleval.
