Nova Vascular

Some things are worth protecting.

Introducing

NovaSeal

The large-bore introducer sheath, engineered around one multi-device hemostatic valve.

The Hemostatic Valve

One valve,
sealed around everything.

NovaSeal's hemostatic valve conforms around guidewires, catheters, and large-bore systems moving together through a single lumen — designed to minimize blood loss through every exchange of the case.

Multi-device access, one seal Designed to minimize blood loss One 2.5 mL saline prep per the IFU
NovaSeal introducer sheath — charcoal valve cap, hub with two blue side-arm stopcocks, royal-blue hydrophilic shaft and silver tapered tip
The Complete System

One sheath. Every exchange covered.

A complete large-bore access platform — the hemostatic valve hub, dedicated VALVE and FLUSH side-arm stopcocks, a hydrophilic shaft, radiopaque marker and atraumatic tip — sterile, single-use, ready off the back table.

Two side-arm stopcocks — the VALVE port and the FLUSH port
Radiopaque visualization ring for precise fluoroscopic placement
Tapered dilator accepts a 0.035″ guidewire for smooth coaxial entry
Vascular Access

A confident path into the vessel.

Soft tapered tip, hydrophilic shaft, coaxial entry over a 0.035″ guidewire — engineered for smooth, atraumatic large-bore access.

Engineered Throughout

Designed to seal, track, and place with precision.

Hemostatic Valve

One valve lumen that keeps its seal around multiple wires and catheters at once — through every device exchange.

Hydrophilic Coating

A lubricious coating along the working length for smoother advancement through tortuous, challenging anatomy.

Visualization & Tip

A radiopaque ring for precise placement and a soft tapered tip designed to reduce vessel trauma on insertion.

Range & Coverage

The breadth a hybrid room needs.

Fifteen consecutive French sizes — every single size from 12 to 26 Fr — each available in all three working lengths. A full 45-configuration grid, so the exact sheath for the case is simply on the shelf.

Clinical & compliance note. Factual device claims trace to the cleared Instructions For Use and manufacturer product literature; comparative and procedural benefits are framed as design intent. Final clinical decisions defer to cleared labeling, facility protocols, and clinician judgment.

Clinical Applications

Built for procedures that demand large-bore confidence.

One access platform, five procedures. In every one, NovaSeal is the conduit — the therapy travels through it, and the seal holds.

Infrarenal aorta

Aortic · EVAR

Main body up one femoral conduit, contralateral limb through the other — two seals holding through every exchange.

PA bifurcation

Pulmonary Embolism

A femoral venous conduit for large-bore aspiration systems traveling through the right heart — hemostasis held across repeated passes.

Aortic annulus

Structural · TAVR

Transfemoral valve delivery, blood loss controlled as large systems move in and out.

Descending thoracic

Aortic · TEVAR

Long working lengths reach the descending thoracic aorta, distal to the left subclavian.

Iliofemoral vein

Deep Venous · DVT

Venous access where profile and lubricity are designed to minimize access-site trauma.

NovaSeal is the first of the system.

A growing platform of vascular-access and intervention devices — engineered to one standard, designed to work together.
