Percutaneous removal using Perclose ProGlide closure devices versus surgical removal for weaning after percutaneous cannulation for venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

摘要

Objective: The removal of arterial cannulas using a Perclose device (Abbott Vascular, Clonmel, Tipperary, Ireland) has not been reported in patients undergoing venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). We investigated the procedural outcomes and complications of percutaneous device closure vs surgical repair for hemostatic control of the arterial access site in weaning from venoarterial ECMO.
