http://www.medgadget.com/wp-content/...D-delivery.jpgInSeal Medical (Caesarea, Israel)*landed the CE Mark of approval in Europe for its*InClosure VCD large bore vascular closure device. Procedures such as*transcatheter aortic valve replacements that require fairly large devices to be introduced through the vasculature produce substantial access holes that can be difficult to close securely.*The InClosure VCD is intended to effectively automate the process and lead to consistent hemostasis.

The device does **t require any preparation before the main procedure, and can be used out of the box. It is inserted into*punctures between*12 French*and*21 French in size and the deployed within the vessel. A flexible membrane held open by a niti**l metal frame that pushes it against the wall keeps the puncture closed. Additionally, the*blood pressure pushing on the ***** actually helps to make sure the seal is tight.

The biodegradable membrane eventually dissolves into the body after a few months and disappears from the site.
