Objective:

To provide a comprehensive review of strategies for managing femoral access and closure in patients undergoing microaxial flow pump-assisted procedures.

Key Findings:
  • Large-bore arterial access increases the risk of vascular complications.
  • Improved imaging techniques enhance the safety of femoral access.
  • Pre-closure methods are effective in HR-PCI but often not feasible in CS cases.
Interpretation:

Effective management of femoral access and closure is critical to reducing morbidity and mortality associated with large-bore arterial access in mAFP procedures.

Limitations:
  • The review may not cover all potential complications associated with large-bore access.
  • Specific outcomes related to different closure techniques were not detailed.
Conclusion:

A modern approach to femoral access and closure is essential for improving patient outcomes in mAFP-assisted procedures.
