Description

From Which Medical Device

Angio-seal is a medical device indicated for use in closing and reducing time to hemostasis at the femoral arterial puncture site in patients who have undergone diagnostic angiography procedures or interventional procedures (minimal artery diameter of 4mm).

The 6F Angio-Seal device is for closure after usage of a 6 French or smaller procedural sheath, while the 8F Angio-Seal device is for closure after usage of an 8 French or smaller procedural sheath.

Angio-Seal device deployment is easy with only 3 deployment steps:

Locate the Artery

Insert the Angio-Seal™ locator and sheath system until blood flows through the drip hole

Withdraw and re-insert to confirm correct location into the vessel
Remove the locator and wire, leaving the Angio-Seal™ sheath in place

Seal the puncture

Pullback the device until the suture stops
Grasp the tube to manually compact until reaching the black marker
Confirm hemostasis and cut the suture
Insert the Angio-Seal™ locator and sheath system until blood flows through the drip hole
Withdraw and re-insert to confirm correct location into the vessel
Remove the locator and wire, leaving the Angio-Seal™ sheath in place

Set the anchor

Insert the Angio-Seal™ into the sheath, click
