Catheter Precision Announces the Start of Enrollment for the LockeT Compare Study
Catheter Precision (NYSE:VTAK) has initiated enrollment in the LockeT Compare Study, with the first three patients already enrolled. This single-center, physician-initiated study aims to evaluate the safety profile of the LockeT suture retention device compared to internal closure devices.
The study will enroll up to 100 patients and focuses on addressing groin complications after cardiac catheter procedures. Previous clinical data for LockeT has demonstrated safety, effectiveness, and cost reduction benefits while maintaining existing hospital workflows. The device creates hemostasis externally and may potentially reduce thrombotic episodes compared to internal closure mechanisms.
Catheter Precision (NYSE:VTAK) ha avviato l'arruolamento nello studio LockeT Compare: i primi tre pazienti sono già stati inclusi. Questo studio monocentrico, promosso da medici, ha l'obiettivo di confrontare il profilo di sicurezza del dispositivo di ritenzione a sutura LockeT con i dispositivi di chiusura interni.
Lo studio prevede l'arruolamento fino a 100 pazienti e si concentra sulla riduzione delle complicanze in regione inguinale dopo procedure cardiache di catheterismo. Dati clinici precedenti su LockeT hanno mostrato sicurezza, efficacia e un potenziale risparmio sui costi, senza alterare i flussi di lavoro ospedalieri esistenti. Il dispositivo ottiene l’emostasi in modo esterno e potrebbe ridurre gli episodi trombotici rispetto ai meccanismi di chiusura interni.

El estudio planea reclutar hasta 100 pacientes y se enfoca en abordar las complicaciones inguinales tras procedimientos cardíacos de cateterismo. Datos clínicos previos sobre LockeT han demostrado seguridad, eficacia y reducción de costes, manteniendo los flujos de trabajo hospitalarios existentes. El dispositivo logra la hemostasia de forma externa y podría reducir los episodios trombóticos en comparación con los mecanismos de cierre internos.

L'étude prévoit d'inclure jusqu'à 100 patients et se concentre sur la gestion des complications inguinales après des procédures cardiaques par cathétérisme. Les données cliniques antérieures sur LockeT ont démontré sécurité, efficacité et réduction des coûts, tout en préservant les flux de travail hospitaliers existants. Le dispositif assure l'hémostase de façon externe et pourrait réduire les épisodes thrombotiques par rapport aux mécanismes de fermeture internes.
Catheter Precision (NYSE:VTAK) hat mit der Rekrutierung für die LockeT Compare-Studie begonnen; die ersten drei Patienten wurden bereits eingeschlossen. Diese einzelzentren-, arztinitiierte Studie zielt darauf ab, das Sicherheitsprofil der LockeT-Nahthaltevorrichtung im Vergleich zu internen Verschlussvorrichtungen zu bewerten.
Die Studie wird bis zu 100 Patienten einschließen und konzentriert sich auf die Vermeidung von Leistenkomplikationen nach kardialen Katheterverfahren. Frühere klinische Daten zu LockeT haben Sicherheit, Wirksamkeit und Kostenvorteile gezeigt, ohne bestehende Krankenhausabläufe zu beeinträchtigen. Das Gerät erzielt die Hämostase extern und könnte im Vergleich zu internen Verschlussmechanismen thrombotische Ereignisse reduzieren.
- Initial enrollment of first three patients successfully completed
- Study will provide comparative safety data for LockeT device
- Previous clinical data shows product is safe and reduces procedural costs
- Device maintains existing hospital workflows without requiring changes
- Study limited to single center
- Complete enrollment of 100 patients still pending
First patients have been enrolled
Fort Mill, S.C., Aug. 21, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Catheter Precision, Inc. (VTAK - NYSE/American), a US based medical device company focused on developing technologically advanced products for the cardiac electrophysiology market today announced that the LockeT Compare Study has enrolled its first three patients.
The LockeT Compare Study is a single center, physician-initiated study that will enroll up to 100 patients and evaluate the safety profile of the LockeT suture retention device compared to internal closure devices. Groin complications after a cardiac catheter procedure, such as atrial fibrillation, are common and can range from small bruising to serious events such as embolism. To date, LockeT clinical data has shown that the product is safe, effective and reduces procedural cost without changing current hospital practices and workflows.
“Effective groin management at the access site after a cardiac catheter procedure, is just as important as the procedure outcomes,� said David Jenkins, CEO of Catheter Precision. “We have successfully shown that LockeT creates hemostasis as an external device and believe that this study will also show that there is a reduction in thrombotic episodes compared to closure devices that have an internal closure mechanism, thus improving patient safety.�
