Abstract
A device and method of closing an incision or puncture in a patient by inserting a hemostatic closure device into the incision or puncture until the distal end of the hemostatic closure device is along the outer wall of the blood vessel or target organ so that the hemostatic closure device does not obstruct the flow of fluid through the blood vessel or target organ. The precise positioning of the hemostatic closure device in the incision or puncture is accomplished through the use of a locating device having a proximal end portion and distally extending locating members thereon which are adapted to be positioned along the outer wall of the blood vessel or target organ of the patient and extend along a relatively small portion of the outer surface of the hemostatic closure device.
