MYNX

Mynx is a medical device designed to close punctures in blood vessels, particularly in the femoral artery, after catheter-based procedures. It helps achieve rapid hemostasis, allowing patients to move around sooner. The device works by deploying a bioabsorbable sealant and a collagen plug at the puncture site, promoting natural clotting and vessel healing. Mynx is available in various sizes to fit different vessel diameters and puncture sizes. It has received approval from regulatory bodies like the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in both arterial and venous closures. Clinical studies have shown its effectiveness and safety, with a low incidence of complications such as bleeding, infection, or vascular compromise. Mynx offers several advantages over traditional manual compression methods, including faster hemostasis, reduced patient discomfort, and earlier patient discharge. It is commonly used in interventional cardiology, radiology, and vascular surgery procedures. Mynx has evolved over the years, with versions like the Mynx Control, Mynx Ace, and MynxGrip, each offering specific features to address various clinical needs. Overall, Mynx represents a significant advancement in post-procedural care, enhancing patient outcomes and improving efficiency in medical settings.
