Suture-mediated closure of large-bore vascular access, such as with Perclose ProGlide (Abbott), “has emerged as the preferred technique,” Sahil A. Parikh, MD, said during a focused session on large-bore closure Saturday at CRT 2021 Virtual. Nicolas M. Van Mieghem, MD, PhD, advocated for collagen-based, or plug-based, closure devices, of which MANTA (Teleflex) is the first commercially available dedicated large-bore closure device in the U.S. and Europe.
