Venous Closure System After AF Ablation

This prospective, randomized, participant-blinded study will compare a suture-based venous closure system (Perclose ProGlide™) with a conventional figure-of-8 suture for femoral venous access-site closure in patients undergoing catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation. A total of 90 participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to the venous closure system group or the figure-of-8 suture group. The primary objective is to evaluate patient satisfaction with the post-procedural vascular closure strategy. Secondary outcomes include time to hemostasis, time to ambulation, time to discharge, and the incidence of minor and major vascular complications within 30 days. Participants will complete a post-procedural satisfaction questionnaire after suture removal, and vascular access-site complications will be assessed during hospitalization and follow-up through 30 days.
