OrthADAPT® Bioimplant is a surgical mesh which has gained acceptance in orthopedic soft tissue repair. OrthADAPT® Bioimplant is designed to reinforce tendon repair or reconstruction. When used to reinforce rotator cuff repair, OrthADAPT® has been shown to reduce time to full range of motion and return to full activity when compared to a non-reinforced control group.1
Orthopedic Applications
Highly Organized Type I Collagen
Unlike reconstituted collagen products, OrthADAPT® Bioimplant is derived from native equine pericardium. This highly organized Type I collagen matrix has a long history of use in implantable medical devices. The inherently superior physical properties enable this pliable <1mm thick xenograft to be securely and reliably sutured to host tissues to reinforce complex soft tissue repair or reconstruction.
