Abstract

A vascular closure device includes an anchor, a suture carrying portion, and at least three needles. The anchor is positionable through a vessel puncture in a vessel wall and operable between expanded and retracted positions. The suture carrying portion is positioned distal of the anchor and configured to carry at least one suture. The needles are operable between an advanced position extending through the vessel wall adjacent to the vessel puncture to connect to the at least one suture, and a retracted position in which the needles position the at least one suture through the vessel wall. The needles and sutures are configurable to close large bore openings in the vessel wall.
