Suture Closure AFtEr VEIN Access for Cardiac Procedures (SAFE-VEIN) Trial
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Primary objective: To compare the safety and efficacy of closure strategies post venous access procedures.
Hypothesis: We anticipate that the use of a venous closure device will decrease the time to hemostasis (TTH), time to ambulation (TTA) and time to discharge (TTD) compared to conventional methods of closure following venous access procedure.

Detailed Description
This study will be a prospective, randomized study of patients who are undergoing one or more of the following procedures at ASLMC:
Large-Bore Procedures >13 F
-
WATCHMAN® device placement
-
Atrial fibrillation/flutter/SVT ablation using cryoballoon or laser balloon
-
Leadless pacemaker
-
Pulmonary embolism thrombectomy (Inari FlowTriever system)
-
MitraClip transcatheter mitral valve repair
RANDOMIZATION:
Patients will be randomized into one of two venous closure groups after a clean stick has been achieved with no complications:
Large-bore (14F-25F) venous access group (1:1)
-
Perclose ProGlide SMC
-
Figure 8 suture
Study Design
Arms and Interventions
| Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
|---|---|
| Experimental: Perclose ProGlide Suture-Mediated Closure System (SMC) - LARGE-BORE PROCEDURES Perclose ProGlide Suture-Mediated Closure System (SMC) will be used as closure strategy for venous access sites using sheath sizes greater than 13F. |
Device: Perclose ProGlide Suture-Mediated Closure System (SMC) - LARGE-BORE PROCEDURES
The Perclose ProGlide Suture-Mediated Closure System (SMC) will be used to close the vein access site(s) at the completion of the large-bore procedure in order to achieve hemostasis.
|
| Active Comparator: Figure 8 Suture - LARGE-BORE PROCEDURES Figure 8 suture will be used as a closure technique for venous access sites using sheath sizes greater than 13F. |
Other: Figure 8 Suture - LARGE-BORE PROCEDURES
A figure 8 suture will be done as a closure strategy in order to achieve hemostasis in large-bore procedures.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Time to achieve hemostasis [Day 1]
The elapsed time between "device" removal and first observed and confirmed venous hemostasis
- Time to ambulate [Day 1]
The elapsed time between removal of the final Perclose ProGlide SMC device (treatment arm) or removal of the final sheath (control arm), and the ability of subjects to stand and ambulate 20 feet without evidence of venous re-bleeding from the femoral access sites.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Time to discharge (TTD)/length of stay (LOS) [up to 5 days post procedure]
The elapsed time between removal of the final sheath, and the ability of subjects to be discharged. Total length of hospital stay.
- Post procedure major bleeding [up to 30 days post procedure]
Bleeding associated with ≥2 g/dl drop in hemoglobin level requiring transfusion, bleeding that occurs at a critical site, or bleeding contributing to death.
- Minor bleeding [up to 30 days post procedure]
Any bleeding that does not meet the criteria for major bleeding
- Access site complications [up to 30 days post procedure]
Access site hematoma, vascular thrombosis, vascular dissection, pseudoaneurysm, or AV fistula
- Mortality [up to 30 days post procedure]
Mortality due to vascular complications
Eligibility Criteria
Criteria
Inclusion criteria:
Large-bore (>13F) Venous Access Procedures Inclusion Criteria:
All patients 18 years and older who are undergoing any of the following: WATCHMAN® device placement, atrial fibrillation ablation using cryoballoon or laser balloon, leadless pacemaker, Pulmonary embolism thrombectomy (Inari FlowTriever system), MitraClip transcatheter mitral valve repair at Aurora St. Luke's Medical Center from date of IRB approval through December 2022. All arterial line access should be radial.
Exclusion criteria:
Large-bore (>13F) Venous Access Procedures Exclusion Criteria:
