Abstract
A puncture sealing system for sealing a vascular puncture comprises an inner member and an outer member comprising a lumen sized and shaped to allow the inner member to slide therein, an occlusion balloon at an outer member distal end, and an inflation lumen that extends from an outer member proximal end to the interior of the occlusion balloon. The occlusion balloon can be inflated by fluid flowing through the outer member inflation lumen so that the occlusion balloon can enable the occlusion of a vascular puncture and contact and apply pressure to a puncture tract extending from the vascular puncture. In one version, the inner member further comprises a vessel locator system. In one version, the puncture sealing system further comprises an obturator slidably receivable within the outer member and having a distal end adapted to at least partially cover the puncture.
