Percutaneous Closure Versus Figure-of-eight Suture for Hemostasis in Leadless Pacemaker Implantation. (PERCLOSE-LP)

March 25, 2026 updated by: Soroosh Kiani, University of Massachusetts, Worcester

A Randomized Comparison of Percutaneous Closure to a Figure-of-eight Suture With Manual Compression for Hemostasis of Large-bore Access for Leadless Pacemaker Implantation

The study will be a randomized comparison of percutaneous suture-mediated closure (SMC) versus manual compression with a superficial figure-of-eight suture (MC) for large bore venous access used for leadless pacemaker implantation.
