Summary

The aim of platelet rich plasma (PRP) application is to accelerate the healing cascade via application of elevated cytokine concentrations released during platelet degranulation.

This is a prospective randomized study of the effect of autologous platelet concentrate application during surgical closure following a vein harvest during coronary bypass surgery. This prophylactic measure will be compared to standard surgical closure techniques with the primary outcome being the incidence of leg wound infection.

Conditions

  • Coronary Heart Failure

Interventions

DEVICE

The GPS™ II Platelet Concentrate Separation Kit

The GPS™ II Platelet Concentrate Separation Kit system is designed to be used for the safe and rapid preparation of autologous platelet-rich-plasma (PRP) from a small sample of blood at the patient's point of care. The PRP can be mixed with autograft and allograft bone prior to application to an orthopedic surgical site as deemed necessary by the clinical use requirements.
