Background: Vascular closure devices (VCDs) are routinely used in both neurovascular and vascular interventional procedures. The purpose of our study was to assess the safety and efficacy of the VCDs for diagnostic and therapeutic neurovascular and vascular procedures. Methods: The study was approved by the University of Manitoba research ethics board. A retrospective review was conducted of the database between January 2017 and December 2019. The data was collected from the Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) and collected in an excel spreadsheet. Patient demographics and clinical information was collected. Descriptive statistics and chi-squared tests were performed using STATA 13 software. A p<0.05 was considered significant. Results: VCD was used in a total of 2072 patients. VCDs were successfully deployed in 94% with 6% failure. Immediate perioperative complications were seen in 6.2% patients. The complication rates were significantly (p=0.025) associated with the type of procedure. Complications were seen significantly (p=0.044) higher in outpatients compared to inpatients and those from emergency room. Conclusions: VCDs were successfully deployed in 96VCDs were successfully deployed in 94% of the patient with 6% perioperative complications. Most of the complications were minor and complications were more commonly associated with outpatients procedures and with diagnostic vascular procedures.
