The present invention is directed to methods and apparatus for sealing a puncture or incision formed percutaneously in tissue separating two internal portions of the body of a living being with an anchor, a sealing plug and a filament connecting the anchor and sealing plug. The method and apparatus provide a magazine fed tamping system for automatic tamping and/or cinching of the sealing plug when the apparatus is withdrawn from the puncture site. The automatic tamping and/or cinching is facilitated by transducing a motive force generated by the withdrawal of the apparatus into a tamping and/or cinching force.
La présente invention concerne des procédés et appareils destinés à la fermeture d'une ponction ou d'une incision percutanée dans un tissu séparant deux parties internes de l'organisme d'un être vivant par une ancre, un bouchon d'obturation et un filament reliant l'ancre et le bouchon d'obturation. Ce procédé et cet appareil permettent d'obtenir un système de tassement alimenté par un magasin pour le tassement et/ou le serrage automatique du bouchon d'obturation lorsque l'appareil est retiré du site de ponction. Le tassement et/ou le serrage automatiques sont facilités par la transduction d'une force motrice, générée par le retrait de l'appareil, en une force de tassement et/ou de serrage.
