The NAICS code is 339113 (Size Standard: 500 employees) DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUIREMENT: GORE ® VIABAHN ® Endoprosthesis The requested items are to be provided to Veterans at the Birmingham VA Medical Center, Birmingham, AL. This request is written with the specification of BRAND NAME OR EQUAL to the currently used items at the participating VAMC's. If any interested potential offerors can meet the below specifications BRAND NAME OR EQUAL to the currently used items, please respond to this SS with enough information to demonstrate that these specifications can be met. Interventionalists treating patients suffering from Peripheral Vascular Disease (PVD) in the Superficial Femoral Artery (SFA) require a flexible stent-graft capable of re-lining tortuous arteries. The GORE ® VIABAHN ® Endoprosthesis is constructed with a durable, reinforced, biocompatible, expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) liner attached to an external nitinol stent structure. Its flexibility enables it to better traverse tortuous areas of the SFA and conform more closely to the complex anatomy of the artery. The GORE ® VIABAHN ® Endoprosthesis with PROPATEN Bioactive Surface is approved for endovascular grafting of the peripheral arteries. The latest interventional product offering from W. L. Gore & Associates, the stent-graft features the addition of proprietary heparin-bonded technology to the proven combination of ePTFE and nitinol. End-point covalent bonding keeps heparin anchored to the endoprosthesis surface while the bioactive site remains free to interact with the blood. Part 1.
