BIOFIBER Absorbable Biologic Scaffolding Solutions
BIOFIBER IS ONLY THE BEGINNING BIOFIBER - CM What is BIOFIBER CM? BIOFIBER Collagen Matrix is comprised of the same P4HB material with the addition of a type 1 bovine collagen coating which increases vascularization and cell density at the site of repair. Provides long-term support while serving as a biocompatible scaffold for host tissue in-growth Distributes tissue loads during the healing process while allowing for return of natural tendon attachment to bone Provides support during healing to permit return to normal joint mechanics Designed to provide support to damaged soft tissue to maintain structural integrity
Reinforces the suture-tendon interface What is BIOFIBER? An advancement in orthopedic absorbable polymers, BIOFIBER is the first orthopedic soft tissue scaffold that: Reinforces the suture-tendon interface Mechanically reinforces tendons repairs Made from P4HB A non-synthetic fermented polymer that breaks down into natural occurring metabolites that allow healing without additional inflammation Increases suture line load sharing Creates a cell friendly environment for rapid incorporation of soft tissue Humeral Bone Tendon BIOFIBER BIOFIBER is woven out of a high-strength, biologically derived material that resorbs over time. Designed for tissue in-growth utilizing an improved biocompatible polymer Creates a cell-friendly environment for rapid incorporation of soft tissue with full scaffold resorption at 12-18 months Tendon Tendon in-growth within scaffold
STRENGTHEN REPAIRS High tensile and suture retention strength Resorbable, biologically derived fiber Dense, bi-layer weave designed to provide mechanical properties in all directions Ability to wick and hold blood Why Reinforce? High failure rates for older patients or patients with thin, weak tendons High failure rates for larger tears Patients with comorbid conditions Suture line tears Tissue that forms post repair is mechanically weaker than native tissue Suture Retention Strength (N) 120 100 80 60 40 20 0 BioFiber Reinforced Tendon: 73% Increase in Suture Retention vs. Control 65.1 Control 110.0 BIOFIBER Average suture retention strength for BIOFIBER reinforced tendons was 110 N and the control tendons were 65 N which is an increase of 73 ± 37% (p < 0.0001) 300 250 200 150 100 50 0 Suture Retention** 229 GraftJacket MaxForce Extreme 216 BIOFIBER * 182 GraftJacket MaxForce Data on file at Tornier, Inc.
