The Science of Active Extravascular Sealing

MYNX CONTROL VCD consists of two configurations of polyethylene glycol (PEG), for durable hemostasis.

  • SAFE
    No foreign-body reaction or scar tissue formation1
  • SYNTHETIC
    Non-thrombogenic1
  • HYDROLYTIC DEGRADATION
    Fully resorbs through hydrolysis—no enzymatic breakdown1
  • MYNX GRIP TIP
    Activated by body temperature and pH Interlocks with contours of the vessel by actively attaching to the artery, for secure mechanical closure
  • MYNX® SEALANT COLUMN
    Expands to 3-4 times its original size on contact with blood and subcutaneous fluids, creating a matrix structure for clot formation

Safety by the Numbers.

MYNX CONTROL VCD has been clinically proven to reduce surgical complications, expedite recovery, shorten hospital stays, and increase patient comfort.2-7‡

Increased Patient Comfort

In a blinded, randomized clinical study, pain at closure and pain increase from baseline to close were significantly lower for MYNX CONTROL VCD than Angio-Seal™ vascular closure device.7

Access-site bleeding and vascular injury

Reduced incident rate In a blinded, randomized clinical study, there was a significantly reduced incident rate for MYNX Portfolio of products than Angio-Seal VCD.
