Morris Innovative (Booth 1473) is introducing its Femoral Introducer Sheath & Hemostasis (FISH) vascular closure device, an application of the clinically proven biomaterial SIS (small intestinal submucosa) for sealing arterial catheterization access sites.

FISH is a biological closure device that prevents scar tissue and inflammation, resisting infection at the arteriotomy.

Also, the FISH device introduces technology that requires only a single sheath for both the introducer and vascular closure device. FISH is deployed in a way that compresses from inside the artery to avoid nerve impingement and discomfort to the patient.
