VasCure - Extracellular Matrix (ECM) For Vascular Repair
An extracellular matrix (ECM) derived from porcine small intestine submucosa (SIS), VasCure for Vascular Repair regulates the biologic healing response to decrease inflammation and stimulate formation of healthy tissue.
VasCure conforms to the vascular anatomy to repair the defect and is hemostatic with minimal bleeding at suture lines.4 Unlike synthetic or cross-linked materials, after remodeling, the elastic modulus approximates normal, site specific tissue.
- SIS ECM material resistant to infection
- SIS ECM material handles similar to vein and conforms to repair the defect
- Hemostatic with minimal bleeding at suture lines
- Resists calcification
SIS ECM has demonstrated antimicrobial activity during remodeling and reduces an inflammatory response.2,3,6,9 VasCure is intended for peripheral vasculature including carotid, renal, iliac, femoral, and tibial blood vessels. VasCure may be used for closure of vessels, as a pledget, or for suture line buttressing when repairing vessels.
Once sutured to viable healthy tissue, VasCure creates a hospitable environment for the surrounding cells to migrate into the bioscaffold and start matrix turnover.
The SIS ECM regulates the biologic healing to reduce inflammation and modulate healing to prevent excessive scar tissue formation. During remodeling, antimicrobial peptides are released and angiogenesis occurs.
Post remodeling, healthy systemically connected vascularized tissue is formed.
