CryoPatch® SG
PULMONARY PATCH
The Ideal Choice for Congenital Reconstruction.
Product Highlights
-
Artivion’s SynerGraft® Technology virtually eliminates the presence of allogeneic donor cells while maintaining the structural integrity of the biological matrix.1,2
-
SynerGraft process is a detergent-free decellularization process since detergents may damage structural proteins.3-7
- Natural curvature of hemi-artery patch allows for reconstruction of single ventricle Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome.
Product Overview
1. SYNERGRAFT DECELLULARIZATION PROCESS
The SynerGraft process includes hypotonic cell lysis, enzymatic digestion of nucleic acids, and sequential washing in a neutral buffer. These three steps work together to ensure maximal degradation and removal of donor cell material and nucleic acids without damaging structural proteins.1-3
The presence of both class I and class II HLA antibodies has significant implications if future heart or other organ transplantation is needed. Implantation of decellularized grafts, with the lower level of PRA and even the absence of a response in most cases, removes this impediment to transplantation.
Clinical Evidence
SYNERGRAFT TECHNOLOGY IS PROVEN TO REDUCE PANEL REACTIVE ANTIBODIES1
Implantation of SynerGraft treated tissue reduces the risk for induction of HLA class I and class II alloantibodies based on Panel Reactive Antibody (PRA) measured at up to one year, compared to the standard processed pulmonary cardiac tissues.
