A total of 18 diagnostic and interventional coronary angiographic patients were treated with a suture mediated closure device for achievement of hemostasis at the brachial artery puncture site. One case resulted in crossing over to standard manual compression due to incomplete tissue capture post-closure. One post-procedural bleeding was reported as well as one case of radial artery vasospasm. No late or major complications were reported.
