Integra Dermal Regeneration Template Single Layer

Integra LifeSciences

Description

Available in thin and regular thicknesses, this is an advanced matrix for dermal regeneration. The dermal replacement layer, which consists of a porous three-dimensional matrix comprised of bovine tendon collagen and chondroitin-6-sulphate, is designed to have a controlled porosity and defined degradation rate. It promotes wound healing in a single application. Integra Single Layer Template can be used as a standalone matrix or in combination with the bilayer Integra Template to add extra thickness to the dermal layer, when wounds of different depths are to be treated.

Indications

Post-excisional treatment of full-thickness and partial-thickness injuries where sufficient autograft is not available at the time of excision or not desirable due to the physiological condition of the patient. Also indicated for use in reconstruction of post-excisional, full-thickness defects of the integument where there is, in the opinion of the treating surgeon, a potential benefit to the patient of improving the reconstructive outcome or decreasing their mortality or morbidity.

Contraindications

Use of Integra Template is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to bovine collagen, chondroitin sulphate derived from shark cartilage, or silicone materials. Integra Template should not be used on clinically diagnosed infected wounds.
