Popis: | In a dog model reproducing colonization of a vascular graft through an experimental bacteremia caused by Staphylococcus aureus, Dacron grafts were more colonized than ePTFE grafts for durations of graft function of 2 hours up to 2 months, while at 6 months the inverse trend was observed, both material being still more susceptible than normal aortas. A single injection of ceftriaxone 90 minutes before the bacteremic challenge completely prevented late graft infection. |
