2 Experience with percutaneous suture systems for larger caliber vascular access Declaration of competing interest Speaker: Bruno Freitas... No conflict of interest

3 Vascular Closure Devices (VCDs) Endovascular Revolution Large delivery devices Larger arteriotomy Prolonged wound exposure Access site complications New challenges on access management and closure Repetitive and preloaded use of VCDs Increasing Age, re-do procedures, hostile access sites Evolving scenario Safety Efficiency Feasibility

4 Preclosing for Large Bore Devices 2 Proglide-systems preloaded 24 French Stentgraft

The Medicare time data for EVAR procedures was about 22% greater than the average time for SEVAR in the Abbott study. It should be noted that time values could be overestimated because they are based on physician surveys recalling the amount of time to complete the procedures. Additionally, there have likely been improvements and efficiencies in technique o Reduction since the in time cost of due the survey. to ProGlide: 34.7 minutes x $19.40/minute = $ Mean reduction in EVAR procedure time when using vascular closure vs. surgical closure = 34.7 minutes Range = $ $28.60 per minute o Reduction in cost due to ProGlide: 34.7 minutes x $28.60/minute = $ Total value (cost-savings) due to ProGlide (low end of range) Economic o When Assessment 1 ProGlide device of Vascular is used: Closure $ for - EVAR $295 = and $ TEVAR FINAL REPORT o When 2 ProGlide Data devices on file from are used: Abbott $ based- on $590 PEVAR = $83.18 Trial Total value (cost-savings) due to ProGlide (high end of range)

23 Axillary Artery Preclosing with Proglide-Sysems Anterior and posterior circumflex humeral arteries

24 Axillary Artery Access for: - TAVI (18 French) - Branched stentgrafts - Chimney / snorkel grafts (12 French) - Iliac-femoral intervention (6-9 French)

25 Axillary Artery Access Experience 5Fr After 12 Fr Angio via axillary artery before preclosing Angio via femoral artery after closing

26 What to be aware of: CFA Size Arterial Calcification Anterior/Circunferential Level of CFA bifurcation Don t hesitate to re-puncture! USG-assisted puncture?! Watch out for potential severe bleeding disorders Fat Patient (morbid obesity) - careful preparation Don t let the lines loose during the procedure Adequate technique Take your time!!!! Adequate patient selection Antecipate potential problems Get familiar with it!!!

27 Conclusions 1- The use of Vascular Closure Devices proved to be safe and efficient and cost-effective; 2- Higher Overall Failure rates were related in our experience to the presence of: Previous chronic total oral anticoagulation Grade III obesity (morbid) Dislodged puncture site (high) Calcification (anterior wall, circunferencial)

28 Conclusions 3- There is a need for more prospective randomized data regarding PEVAR/TEVAR procedures
