The "pre-close" technique is a widely established technique to achieve vascular closure after TAVI or TAAR, with most centers utilizing two suture-mediated vascular closure devices (ProGlide) to pre-close the arteriotomy site. In this study, the authors provided new data on the safety and efficacy of utilizing a single ProGlide based strategy for closure during TAVI with good clinical outcomes. These information may be very useful pending that randomized data from multicenter trials will be collected in order to confirm safety and efficacy of the technique.
