1. A method for sealing a puncture of a vessel using a hemostatic device that includes (i) a first tube defining a first lumen configured to receive a guidewire and a flow of a fluid therethrough, (ii) a second tube circumscribing at least a portion of the first tube and at least partially defining a second lumen, and (iii) a substantially rigid stopper coupled to a distal end of the second tube, the stopper defining a stopper lumen that receives the first tube therethrough in an interference fit, said method comprising:
advancing a distal end of the hemostatic device along the guidewire into the vessel until a fluid is channeled through a first opening into the first lumen, wherein the first opening is defined in a side wall of the first tube and positioned distally relative to the stopper; and dispensing a flowable hemostatic agent through the second lumen and out of at least one second opening, wherein at least one injection groove defined in an outer surface of the stopper cooperates with the distal end of the second tube to define the at least one second opening. |
