Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Immediate Sealing Evidenced by no Bleeding on Clamp Release.

    The immediate sealing evidenced by no bleeding on clamp release was measured at time of surgery

    Immediate at time of surgery

  • Cumulative Incidence of Significant Bleeding, Infection, Neurological Deficit or Inflammatory/Immune Allergic Response

    The Primary Safety Endpoint Will be the Cumulative Incidence of Significant Bleeding, Infection, Neurological Deficit or Inflammatory/Immune Allergic Response Through 6 Weeks.

    Treatment through 6 weeks

Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Subject must meet all of the following criteria to be eligible for treatment in the Study:
  • The subject must be equal or greater than 18 years old.
  • The subject must be scheduled for the surgical placement of a synthetic (i.e., PTFE/Dacron) vascular graft or patch for large vessel repair/arterial reconstruction/hemodialysis access/arteriotomy.
  • The subject has no child bearing potential or has a negative serum or urine pregnancy test within 7 days of the index procedure.
  • The subject is willing and able to be contacted for the follow up visits at 6 weeks (± 7 days) and 3 months (± 7 days).
  • The subject or guardian must provide written informed consent using a form that is reviewed and approved by the IRB.

You may not qualify if:

  • Subjects will be excluded from the Study if any of the following criteria are met:
  • The subject has a known hypersensitivity or contraindication to heparin, bovine or seafood products.
  • The subject has a history of bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy, or will refuse blood transfusions.
  • The subject is currently enrolled in this, or another investigational device or drug trial (IDE or IND) that has not completed the required follow-up period. Note: Extended follow-up trials for products that were investigational but are currently commercially available are not considered investigational trials.
