Abstract: A sealing device for a puncture in a blood vessel, device being slidingly receivable over a guide tube and comprising a tubular, resilient sealing member formed with a sealing portion spontaneously sealable upon deployment of the device into an activated state, an engaging portion for bearing against an external surface of the blood vessel and a plurality of anchors fitted at their fore end with fasteners for engaging a corresponding internal surface of the blood vessel and at a rear end with a manipulating bit. The anchors being displaceable between a constricted position in which they blend with the tubular sealing member, and an operative position in which the fasteners are laterally expanded and engage the internal surface of the blood vessel.

Abstract: A sealing device for sealing a puncture in a blood vessel, the device being slidable over a guide tube and comprising a tubular housing, a resilient sealing member formed with a sealing portion spontaneously scalable upon deployment of the device into an operative state, an engaging portion for bearing against an external surface of the blood vessel and an anchoring assembly for engaging an internal surface of the blood vessel. The anchoring assembly comprises anchor members which are displaceable between a constricted position in which they blend with the tubular housing, and an operative position in which the anchors are laterally deployed to engage the internal surface of the blood vessel.
