1 “Pre-Close” Technique: A Step-by-Step Description
Zvonimir Krajcer, MD Program Director- Peripheral Vascular Interventions Department of Cardiology, St. Luke’s Episcopal Hospital and Texas Heart Institute, Houston, TX

2 Disclosures On the speaker’s bureau for W.L. Gore, Endologix, Medtronic, Volcano, Abbott Vascular Training courses for: W.L. Gore, Endologix, Medtronic, Volcano, Abbott Vascular, BARD Consultant for W.L. Gore, Endologix, Medtronic, Abbott Vascular Off-label use of some products may be discussed

3 CFA Access Management for EVAR and TEVAR
Depend on: Patient selection

4 Pre-procedural Evaluation
Use CT to determine CFA suitability for ‘Pre-close’ Suitable CFA Access Site Not Suitable Access Site! Not Suitable Access Site! The only preoperative evaluation that is usually required is the thin-collimated computerized tomography (CT) with 3-dimensional reconstruction. This test measures all the parameters necessary to determine the suitability for percutaneous endovascular aneurysm repair. Appropriate device lengths and diameters are chosen on the basis of this test. Information is obtained on the femoral access sites and aortic accessibility through the iliac vessels. This test also determines the iliofemoral artery diameters, vessel tortuosity, degree of calcification, and specific location of the femoral bifurcation. Reference: Morasch MD. Percutaneous thoracic and abdominal aortic aneurysm repair. Ann Vasc Surg. 2005;19: [Morasch, 2005](/p585/col2/para2)

5 Tested Vascular Access Closure Devices for EVAR,TEVAR& TAVR
ProGlide™ Prostar XL ™ Prostar XL™ ProGlide™ Profile 10 F 6F Suture(s) Tevdek, braided Monofilament Knot Operator tied Pre-formed No. of devices 1 for sheaths up to 24 F 2 for sheaths up to 24 F Caution: The use of suture-mediated closure devices for endovascular aneurysm repair is off-label in the US

6 ‘Pre-close’ Technique
Micropuncture kit Fluoroscopy Duplex (USN) Doppler needle FA Angiogram Micropuncture needle Micropuncture introducer

7 ‘Pre-close’ Technique with ProGlide
Advance first ProGlide over 0.035” guidewire until pulsatile bleeding from side port Remove the wire 1

8 ‘Pre-Close’ Technique with ProGlide
2 3 Rotate 30o medially 4 Deploy suture

9 ‘Pre-close’ Technique with ProGlide
Deploy the second Proglide rotating it 30o laterally Insert 7/9 Fr sheath for hemostasis Tag sutures and leave for later closure Repeat the same for contralateral side 2 ProGlides Fo reach acces site

10 ‘Pre-Close’ Technique with ProGlide
After completion of EVAR or TEVAR pull up on the rail to remove slack at the arteriotomy Tighten down knot with knot pusher, then lock suture Remove wire when hemostasis is achieved Cut the suture Reverse heparin -(selectively) Manual pressure 5 min

11 ‘Pre-close’ Technique with ProGlide
If ProGlide misdeploys (1-5%) on entry, remove it and place a new one In obese patients, make sure you are intraluminal (may require compressing skin) Be careful not to prematurely lock the pre-formed knot

12 Over the wire Device (wire port)
‘Pre-close’ Technique with Prostar XL™ One device is sufficient for sheath sizes up to 24F! Over the wire Device (wire port)

13 ‘Pre-close’ Technique with Prostar XL™
The device is gradually advanced through a 1 cm skin incision at 45° by rotating the hub in a CW or CCW direction to achieve a blunt dissection of the subcutaneous tissues 45° The risk of vascular complications was 3.7% with percutaneous access as compared with 15.1% with surgical repair. With percutaneous access, a reduced incidence of groin infections, neuropathies, and hematomas was noted, along with a reduced need for embolectomy.

14 ‘Pre-close’ Technique with Prostar XL™
Deploy the needles when pulsatile flow appears in the marker lumen

15 Remove Prostar XL™ Needles
‘Pre-close’ Technique with Prostar XL™ Remove Prostar XL™ Needles Remove the needles and cut the sutures

16 ‘Pre-close’ Technique with Prostar XL™
Two green & two white sutures are then secured with separate hemostats Prostar XL device is then retracted until the wire port is visible The .035 guide wire is then advanced through a wire port & the Prostar XL device is removed The risk of vascular complications was 3.7% with percutaneous access as compared with 15.1% with surgical repair. With percutaneous access, a reduced incidence of groin infections, neuropathies, and hematomas was noted, along with a reduced need for embolectomy. Reference: Mussa FF, Mitchell JH, Naoum JJ, Krajcer Z, Lumsden AB. Fellows debate: access for EVAR. Endovascular Today Web site. Available at: Accessed February 13, 2006.

17 ‘Pre-close’ Technique with Prostar XL™
The risk of vascular complications was 3.7% with percutaneous access as compared with 15.1% with surgical repair. With percutaneous access, a reduced incidence of groin infections, neuropathies, and hematomas was noted, along with a reduced need for embolectomy. Reference: Mussa FF, Mitchell JH, Naoum JJ, Krajcer Z, Lumsden AB. Fellows debate: access for EVAR. Endovascular Today Web site. Available at: Accessed February 13, 2006. [Mussa, 2006](/p81/col1/para1) After completion of EVAR, 2 white and 2 green sutures are separated & sliding knot technique is used by looping the non-rail suture 5 times around the rail suture

18 ‘Pre-close’ Technique with Prostar XL™
Reintroduce the Dilator Introduce .035 SS Hydrophilic wire

19 ‘Pre-close’ Technique with Prostar XL™
The sheath and the dilator are slowly retracted over a super stiff hydrophilic guide wire , while advancing the sliding knot

20 ‘Pre-close’ Technique with Prostar XL™
Hemostasis is achieved with advancing the knot with a knot pusher and locking the knot by pulling on the non-rail suture

21 How to Resolve a Problem with Suboptimal Hemostasis
Technical success can be achieved in 97% of patients! Maintain arterial access with .035 super stiff hydrophilic wire! Advance a dilator (11-18F) & sheath to achieve hemostasis! Compression device is useful Reverse heparin Local thrombin helps with minor bleeding If above measures fail, surgical exposure and direct repair is needed
