Angio-Seal™ VIP
Simple.Proven. Fast Sealing1.
Angio-Seal™ VIP is indicated for closing and reducing time to hemostasis at the common femoral arterial puncture site (lumen diameter >4mm) in patients who have undergone diagnostic angiography procedures or interventional procedures using
- an 8 French or smaller procedural sheath for the 8Fr Angio-Seal device
- or a 6French or smaller procedural sheath for the 6Fr Angio-Seal device.
Angio-Seal™ VIP is also indicated to allow patients to ambulate safely as soon as possible after sheath removal and device placement, following a diagnostic angiography and/or interventional procedures.
CONTACT A REPRESENTATIVECharacteristics

Angio-Seal contains 3 bioabsorbable components for active arteriotomy closure:
- Hemostasis is achieved by sealing the arteriotomy with a bioabsorbable anchor and bioabsorbable collagen plug, held together by a bioabsorbable suture.
- All implantable components resorb within 90 days.2
- Arterial flow is not compromised, no evidence of chronic scar tissue or inflammation.
Proven
After more than 20 years on the market and numerous randomized clinical trials, Angio-Seal™ proved:
- high deployment & hemostasis success rate3
- to provide safe & effective closure of the femoral access site4
- to have lower complication rates than manual compression5 & other VCDs6
Fast Sealing
Versus manual compression, Angio-Seal significantly reduces:
- Time to hemostasis4
- Time to ambulation1
- Time to discharge7
