Abstract
Background: The introduction of the Perclose vascular closure device (VCD) for atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation procedures in Japan is expected to facilitate early ambulation.
Methods and results: The study population comprised 554 patients undergoing AF ablation, of whom 377 successfully underwent Perclose VCD deployment at the end of the procedure. At 4 h after the procedure, 94% (353/377 patients) achieved early hemostasis and 57% (213/377 patients) achieved early ambulation. Notably, 0.5% (2/377 patients) developed acute deep vein thrombosis.
Conclusions: The Perclose VCD demonstrated promising efficacy in achieving early hemostasis, potentially facilitating early ambulation and discharge in appropriate patients.
