Perclose closure device - how does it work & how to deploy.

The Perclose Proglide is a suture-based arteriotomy closure device. It has a very clever design which is demonstrated here. The steps for deployment are shown, in detail.

I'm here because I'm doing TAVI as my thesis and wanted to understand more about Perclose ... gotta admit I've never watched a video I fanboyed that much because it was done with so much dedication to the cause ("with a violin move"...)
Lovit - thanks a lot!

excellent video!!

Beautiful. Such details hard to find. Thanks

nobody is telling that you need a very good preparation of the access site by enlarging the puncture hole with a hemostat to widen the skin first. Without this step you can't advance the tamper. Please beware, i have failed deploying few of these because of that. Another problem that i encountered with this dervice is that the wires keep snapping and i don't know why...

Garbage, maybe on 30 year old pacients with healthy vessels, i tryed 2 devices on a 7Fr puncture in the common femoral artery and it was still bleeding

[@robattaran4680]

Agree. If the hole is small, a slight enlargement with a hemostat can help advance your equipment. If your sutures are snapping, it might relate to the degree of tension applied.
