Recruitment Details
Key information relevant to the recruitment process for the overall study, such as dates of the recruitment period and locations
Subjects were recruited at one surgical site in the US from approximately March 2006 through May 2008. One hundred one subjects were entered into the study.

Pre-Assignment Details
Significant events and approaches for the overall study following participant enrollment, but prior to group assignment
Subjects were excluded from the study if their Body Mass Index was less than or equal to 35 or greater than or equal to 65. Subjects could not have a life expectancy of less than 12 months nor a known sensitivity to bovine material.

Reporting Groups
  Description
Control control arm where no buttress is used on stomach or GJ anastomosis staple lines.
PSD Veritas PSD Veritas is used as a buttress for staple lines of the stomach and/or GJ anastomosis. Linear and circular refer to the shapes of the Veritas.
