Procedure-Related Complication Rates With the Use of Vascular Closure Devices; Does Size Only Matter? A Large Single Centre Retrospective Study
Although complications relating to sheath size are well established in the literature, there remains a paucity of data assessing the impact of procedure specific factors when comparing VCDs. Our study challenges that size is the sole determinant of VCD success and invites a more holistic view of VCD deployment strategies. This study advocates continued research into the nuances of other potential confounding variables to optimise patient outcomes.
