Safety and Efficacy of LockeT Suture Retention Device for Large‐Bore Venous Access Closure
ABSTRACT Background Electrophysiology (EP) procedures increasingly require large‐bore venous access (LBVA), which is associated with a higher risk of vascular complications. While vascular closure devices (VCDs) are well established for arterial access, data on venous closure—particularly for LBVA—remain limited.
