Review
The use of velour as a vascular prosthesis
Biomed Eng.
1976 Sep.
Abstract
Knitted Dacron cloth fabricated into tubes has gained widespread acceptance as an arterial prosthesis. Continued research and development in the field of vascular prostheses is required because existing materials are not ideal. This paper relates general developments in vascular prosthesis research and focuses on specific results with Dacron velour materials. The nature of the velour surface offers several advantages that are important in designing a more satisfactory prosthesis.
