GORE® ACUSEAL Vascular Graft
The GORE® ACUSEAL Vascular Graft allows for earlier removal or avoidance of a central venous catheter (CVC), providing an alternative for your hemodialysis patients.
- Early cannulation: Cannulate within 24 hours with the leading1 on-label early cannulation graft to allow for earlier removal or avoidance of a CVC
- Reduced infection and mortality: 5x lower risk of infection and 3x lower risk of mortality compared to CVC2
- Lower total cost of care: Lowers the costs of treating CVC sepsis by earlier removal of a CVC3
The tri-layer design of the GORE® ACUSEAL Vascular Graft is optimized for early cannulation and provides uncompromised handling.
- Flexible at curves without kinking
- Free from stiffness or rigidity
- Precise suturing and anastomotic tailoring
