Plug vs. suture: Who wins in large bore access closure?

Wassim Shatila et al. Catheter Cardiovasc Interv. .

Abstract

Large Bore Access in increasingly common and surgical closure used to be the gold standard for closure. Novel less invasive closure devices such as the suture based vascular devices offer a safe alternative to surgery. Recent developments provide us with MANTA (Essential Medical Inc., Malvern, Pennsylvania) a vascular closure device that seems to be as safe and associated with less bleeding. Certain genetic polymorphisms might account for HoTPR.
