Patent ID: 10625066

Abstract:
A luminal access device is provided that includes a luminal graft attached to a patient lumen. A percutaneous access device (PAD) is coupled to the luminal graft and adapted to stabilize a conduit in fluid communication with the luminal graft and an external medical device. A portion of said PAD adapted to be external to the patient and seal around said conduit. Infectious agent penetration at an insertion site of the PAD is reduced by providing a porous inner sleeve fluidly connected to a conduit. A vacuum or hydrodynamic source is fluidly connected to the conduit to create a fluid draw from the subject tissue through the inner sleeve to the conduit. The conduit is readily formed to have a bore and an outer conduit surface, the outer conduit surface being optionally nanotextured. The conduit bore is adapted to accommodate a medical appliance.
