Improved textile grafts

A tubular or non-tubular implant or prosthetic comprising:

• a textile layer comprising a plurality of interstices and/or pores, and defining an interfacing surface and an opposing surface;
• and
• a sealing layer comprising a non-porous, non-organic polymer adhered to the interfacing surface and defining a tissue-facing surface, wherein the non-porous, non-organic polymer is configured to at least partially penetrate through at least some of the plurality of interstices and/or pores at the interfacing surface of the textile layer,
• wherein the non-porous, non-organic polymer is formed of a material configured to prevent electrocautery energy applied thereto from damaging the textile layer.

A tubular or non-tubular implant or prosthetic comprising:

• a textile layer comprising a plurality of interstices and/or pores, and defining an interfacing surface and an opposing surface;
• and
• a sealing layer comprising a non-porous, non-organic polymer attached to the interfacing surface and defining a tissue-facing surface, wherein the non-porous, non-organic polymer is configured to at least partially penetrate through at least some of the plurality of interstices and/or pores at the interfacing surface of the textile layer,
• wherein the non-porous, non-organic polymer is formed of a material configured to prevent electrocautery energy applied to or near the tissue-facing surface from damaging the textile layer.

A tubular or non-tubular implant or prosthetic configured to resist or retard damage due to application of electrocautery energy, comprising:

• a textile layer comprising a plurality of interstices and/or pores, and defining an interfacing surface and an opposing surface;
• and
• a sealing layer of a non-porous, non-organic polymer attached to the interfacing surface and defining a tissue-facing surface, wherein the non-porous, non-organic polymer is configured to at least partially penetrate through at least some of the plurality of interstices and/or pores at the interfacing surface of the textile layer,
• wherein the non-porous, non-organic polymer of the sealing layer does not penetrate to the opposing surface of the textile layer,
• wherein the sealing layer is configured to resist and/or retard damage from applied electrosurgical energy,
• whereby damage to the textile layer resulting from the applied electrosurgical energy is resisted and/or retarded.
