Hemostat- consists of a sterile disposable Wire and a sterile disposable Clip. In conjunction with manual compression, Hemostat provides temporary hemostasis at a femoral access site after femoral arterial catheterization while allowing continuous distal perfusion. After completion of catheterization procedure, the Wire is inserted into the artery through the existing introducer sheath. The distal tip of the Wire is deployed, which opens the bi-convex, low profile Disc within the lumen of the femoral artery distal to the introducer sheath tip. After removing the introducer sheath over the Wire, gentle upward tension is applied to the Wire to conform the Disc to the contours of the vessel securing it against the intima, blocking the arteriotomy. Tension is maintained by applying the Clip externally to the Wire at the puncture site. Tension between the Disc and the Clip creates a site-specific compression of the arteriotomy and establishes temporary hemostasis. During dwell, natural recoil of smooth muscle in the vessel wall occurs at the arteriotomy site. A biocompatible coating on the Wire aides the body's natural hemostatic process and promotes ease of removal. Following appropriate dwell time, the Disc is collapsed and Hemostat is completely removed from the artery. No part of the device is left behind. Final hemostasis of the vessel puncture site occurs with application of manual or mechanical compression after removing Hemostat.
