Cardiva Medical’s Vascular Closure System Finds Further Approval

The FDA approved an expanded indication for Cardiva Medical’s Vascade vascular closure system, allowing it to be used for 5-7F femoral venous closures after being previously approved for arterial closures.

The vascular closure system is intended for patients undergoing interventional cardiac catheterization procedures.

The device consists of a collagen patch and proprietary collapsible disk that are clinically proven to achieve hemostasis while minimizing complications. It does not require prolonged heavy pressure or extended bed rest.
