ABSTRACT Background Plug‐based vascular closure devices (Pb‐VCD) and suture‐based vascular closure devices (Sb‐VCD) are used for percutaneous vascular access site closure during transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Until now, no clear superiority of either device was shown in studies comparing 18 F VCDs solely.
