Fusion

Hybrid Vascular Grafts

Combining ePTFE with PET

The ePTFE inner layer of Getinges Fusion vascular graft is designed to offer long-term patency rates similar to standard ePTFE vascular grafts.

PERFECTION Trial Overview

The PERFECTION trial was a prospective, multi-center study designed to assess the clinical efficacy of the novel Fusion vascular graft.[3]

  • 117 patients underwent femoral-popliteal bypass with the Fusion vascular graft
  • Duplex ultrasound imaging and ankle-brachial indices were performed at 30 days, 6 months and 12 months
  • The primary efficacy end point was 12-month primary patency

Results

  • The 30-day primary graft patency was 95.3%
  • The 12-month primary rate was 85.6%, and the secondary patency rate was 93.2%
  • Ankle-brachial indices increased from a mean of 0.53 +/- 0.20 preoperatively to 0.97 +/- 0.16 at 30 days and 0.91 +/- 0.22 at 12 months

Patency rates equaled or exceed those reported with other nonbioactive vascular grafts and compare favorably with data from many studies of heparin-coated prostheses.

Conclusion

The PERFECTION trial concluded that the Fusion vascular graft is an effective alternative to ePTFE grafts and should be considered as an option in patients requiring femoral-popliteal arterial reconstruction.
