Abstract (original English)

The GID SVF-1 and GID SVF-2 are closed-system, disposable, scalable cellular isolation devices designed for isolating the human adipose-derived stromal vascular fraction (hSVF) from lipoaspirates at the clinical point of care. The purpose of this study was to characterize the device performance with respect to cell yield and viability of the hSVF, as well as the hSVF purity and cellular composition. Our results demonstrate that adipose-derived hSVF can be safely obtained using both devices and standardized methods, yielding cells that are free of bacterial contaminants as measured by endotoxin levels, Gram stain, and culture. In addition, they produce cellular preparations with compositions consistent with reported values within the peer-reviewed literature using similar methods.

What this study does not prove

  • • This study does not prove SVF is an approved treatment or a replacement for standard care.
  • • This is a narrative review: it collects no new patient data and does not systematically appraise evidence quality.
