Self-sealing tubular grafts, patches, and methods for making and using them

A tubular graft, comprising:

• an elongate tubular body including a first end, a second end, and a lumen extending between the first and second ends;
• and
• a first self-sealing region at least partially surrounding a first length of the tubular body, the self-sealing region including one or more reinforcement members embedded within a base material, the one or more reinforcement members comprising a first helical coil that extends axially along the first length, the helical coil applying an axially compressive force to the base material.

• and
• a first self-sealing region at least partially surrounding a first length of the tubular body, the self-sealing region including first and second reinforcement members embedded within a base material, the first reinforcement member extending axially along the first length and including elements that extend at least partially around a circumference of the tubular body, the second reinforcement member extending axially along the first length and including elements that extend at least partially around a circumference of the tubular body, the second reinforcement member spaced apart radially from the first reinforcement member.
