Devices and methods for creating hemostasis at a subcutaneous vascular puncture are disclosed. The methods and devices may be used to close vascular punctures following trans-radial arterial procedures, e.g., catheterization and percutaneous coronary intervention. The devices may include a housing defining a suction chamber and an anvil disposed within the suction chamber and adhesively attached to the limb of a patient such that the apparatus creates a pulling force as well as a pushing force on the patient’s skin, subcutaneous tissue, and artery. Alternatively, the pulling force and pushing force may be accomplished be mechanical means.
