Cardiovascular Patch

Gore-Tex Acuseal is a cardiovascular patch that decreases suture hole leakage rates by as much as 88% as compared with other patches
W. L. Gore & Associatesuseal is a cardiovascular patch that decreases suture hole leakage rates by as much as 88% as compared with other patches. The patch combines biologically-inert Gore expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) with an equally inert middle layer of elastomeric fluoropolymer. This composite structure enables the patch to seal around the penetrating suture, thus significantly reducing suture hole bleeding without sacrificing ease-of-handling and conformability.
