Official title
Post-Market Clinical Follow-up Registry to Evaluate the Safety and Performance of the Intervascular Vascular Grafts and Patches in Patients Undergoing Bypass, Replacement, or Repair of Aortic, Peripheral, or Carotid Arteries
Overview
The purpose of this registry is to evaluate the long-term safety and performance of Intervascular Vascular Grafts and Patches (Intergard Standard, Hemashield, Intergard Silver, Intergard Synergy) for bypass, repair or replacement of aortic, peripheral, or carotid arteries. This registry is intended to further define the expected product lifetime of the devices and to collect data related to usefulness of the antimicrobial coatings.
Interventions
- Device Intergard Standard - Collagen Coated Vascular Grafts and Patches
Intergard Standard, Collagen coated vascular grafts and patches are made of knitted (knitted or knitted ultrathin) or woven polyester. The products are coated with a highly purified form of cross-linked bovine collagen to minimize intraoperative bleeding and eliminate the need for preclotting at the time of implant. Note that the radially supported grafts have a polypropylene supportive coil designed to resist kinking and compression of extra-anatomical vascular repair, where potential unwanted - Device Hemashield - Collagen Coated Vascular Grafts and Patches
Hemashield Vascular Grafts and Patches are made of knitted or woven polyester. The products are impregnated with a highly purified bovine collagen to reduce bleeding at the time of implant and thereby eliminates the operative preclotting step. - Device Intergard Silver - Antimicrobial Collagen Coated Vascular Grafts and Patches
Intergard Silver antimicrobial collagen coated vascular grafts are made of knitted (knitted or knitted ultrathin) or woven polyester. The Hemapatch Silver Ultrathin is a surgical patch made from knitted ultrathin polyester fabric. The products are coated with a highly purified form of cross-linked bovine collagen to minimize intraoperative bleeding and eliminate the need for preclotting at the time of implant. In addition to collagen coating, the collagen matrix of Intergard Silver vascular graf - Device Intergard Synergy - Antimicrobial Collagen Coated Vascular Grafts
Intergard Synergy antimicrobial collagen coated vascular grafts are made of knitted (knitted or knitted ultrathin) polyester. The products are coated with a highly purified form of cross-linked bovine collagen to minimize intraoperative bleeding and eliminate the need for preclotting at the time of implant. In addition to collagen coating, the collagen matrix of Intergard Synergy Antimicrobial collagen coated vascular grafts is loaded with antimicrobial agents: silver acetate and triclosan. The
