Slider Graft Deployment System
The patented Slider Graft Deployment System (GDS) is an innovation that equips physicians with the means of surgically implanting a vascular graft, making it easy to implant with low tunnel bleeding. [1]
The Slider GDS tunneling system provides fast graft attachment and insertion. The Slider GDS system makes it easy to pull any small diameter graft through the subcutaneous tissue. The low profile tunneler tip with its thin protection sleeve minimizes trauma, allows for a tight graft tunnel, and minimizes pre-wetting of the graft. [1] The Slider GDS has a double sheath system designed to minimize the risk of contaminating the graft material prior to insertion.
The Slider GDS is an option for the following vascular grafts:
- Flixene Vascular Graft
- Advanta VXT Vascular Graft
