Questions
AI-generated answers, 19 Sep 2026
What types of cardiovascular procedures is the Cooley 2 Vascular Prosthesis Straight intended for, and how is it used in those procedures?
The Cooley 2 Vascular Prosthesis Straight is designed for surgical implantation to replace or bypass damaged blood vessels with a diameter of 6mm or greater. It is intended for use in vascular reconstruction procedures, such as bypass surgeries or direct vessel replacements, where a durable synthetic graft is required to restore blood flow. The prosthesis is sewn into place during surgery to create a new pathway for blood circulation, ensuring continuity where natural vessels are compromised.
Is the Cooley 2 Vascular Prosthesis Straight intended for reuse, or is it meant to be used only once?
The Cooley 2 Vascular Prosthesis Straight is explicitly intended for single-use only. This design ensures patient safety by preventing cross-contamination and maintaining sterility, which is critical in surgical settings where infection control is paramount.
How is the Cooley 2 Vascular Prosthesis Straight supplied, and what should I consider when storing it?
The device is supplied sterile, ready for immediate use in controlled surgical environments. Since it is single-use, it should be stored in its original packaging in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. Proper storage ensures the graft remains uncontaminated and maintains its structural integrity until use.
What regulatory pathway does the Cooley 2 Vascular Prosthesis Straight follow, and how does this affect its use?
The Cooley 2 Vascular Prosthesis Straight is regulated under the FDA’s 510(k) clearance process, specifically classified as a Prosthesis, Vascular Graft, of 6mm and greater diameter. It was granted clearance in 1981 under the traditional review pathway and is categorized under the Cardiovascular Device classification. This means it has undergone FDA evaluation to ensure safety and effectiveness for its intended surgical use in vascular reconstruction.
