About this trial

This study will compare the use of one Perclose device to the usual approach of two devices for pre-closure during Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR). The study will compare the time it takes for bleeding to stop using the different closure approaches. The study will also compare complications when using one Perclose device versus two.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Patient age 18 or older

Transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR)

Implantation of CoreValve replacement valve

Access using 14 French sheaths

Disqualifiers

Alternative Access Routes: Patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) via alternative access routes such as subclavian access or transapical access.

Planned Surgical Cut-Down: Patients planned for surgical cut-down procedures rather than percutaneous access.

Vascular Access Complications: Patients with known vascular complications at the femoral access site, such as residual hematoma, recent femoral arteriotomy or venotomy within the past 10 days, history of significant vascular complications or prior intravascular closure device use within the previous 30 days.

Arterial or Venous Issues: Patients with small femoral arteries or veins (<5 mm in diameter), patients with access sites located in vascular grafts.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Number of Patients With Vascular Complications

Number of subjects in each group experiencing major or minor vascular complications directly related to the TAVR procedure occurring during the index hospitalization.

Time frame
Day 5 post-procedure
2

Number of Patients With Life-threatening bleeding

Number of subjects in each group experiencing any bleeding event related to the TAVR procedure that is life-threatening within 24 hours post-procedure.

Time frame
Hour 24 post-procedure
3

Number of Patients With Major or Minor Bleeding Complications Without Life-Threatening Condition

Number of subjects in each group experiencing bleeding complications related to the TAVR procedure that do not meet the criteria for life-threatening bleeding but still result in significant clinical concern within 24 hours of the index procedure.

Time frame
Hour 24 post-procedure
4

Time to Hemostasis

For each subject, time elapsed from initial deployment of the initial one or two Perclose devices (depending on assigned group) to complete hemostasis of the femoral access site. Measured in seconds.

Time frame
1 hour post procedure

Secondary outcomes

1

Additional Closure Device Use

Number of subjects requiring use of additional closure devices beyond the initial closure strategy required to achieve hemostasis at the femoral access site within 24 hours post-procedure. The number and type of devices will be recorded for each subject.

Time frame
Hour 24 post-procedure
2

In-Hospital Serious Vascular Complications Requiring Percutaneous or Surgical Interventions

Number of subjects in each group experiencing severe vascular complications that necessitate either percutaneous procedures or surgical interventions during the index hospitalization.

Time frame
Day 5 post-procedure
3

Number of Patients With Limb Ischemia Related to TAVR During Index Admission

Number of subjects in each group experiencing significant peripheral ischemia related to the arteriotomy closure between the TAVR procedure and discharge.

Time frame
Day 5 post-procedure
4

Limb Ischemia Related to TAVR

Number of subjects in each group experiencing significant peripheral ischemia related to the arteriotomy closure monitored within 30 days post procedure.

Time frame
Day 30 post-procedure
