DURAGEN PLUS 4IN X 5IN ADHESION
ADHESIVE MATRIX
Manufacturer : DR REDDY'S LABORATORIES LTDOrigin of Medicine : IndiaIntroduction:
Duragen Plus 4in x 5in Adhesion is used for restoring and repairing defects that occur after cranial and spinal procedures. It has a uniform pore structure that facilitates cell ingrowth. In certain surgeries involving brain and spinal cord, neural tissues get exposed after the said procedure. This matrix acts like a normal soft tissue and conforms to the complex surfaces of exposed nerve tissues.
Uses of Duragen Plus 4in x 5in Adhesion:
- To cover large defects after surgery (Cranial convexity)
- To treat brain swelling that is likely to occur after brain surgery
- Adhesion barrier to inhibit post-surgical peridural fibrosis
How Duragen Plus 4in x 5in Adhesion works:
This matrix readily conforms to the surface of the brain, spinal cord and other tissues. It closes dural defects following traumatic injury, excision, retraction or shrinkage. It provides a physical barrier between dura and overlying tissues and protects against fluid leakage. The matrix remains in place and resorbs after healing is complete.
Interaction with other drugs:
Inform your doctor about any medications you are taking or have taken before the surgery.
More Information:
Store at room temperature. Avoid exposure to heat and humidity. Do not refrigerate.
