ArthroFlex® BioWasher®
ArthroFLEX®
ArthroFlex BioWasher is a smaller-sized acellular dermal matrix intended for suture reinforcement in soft tissue repairs.1
- Smaller Size: Easily passes through surgical portal for implantation in arthroscopic procedures.
- Increased Safety: Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of 10-6 means lower risk of disease transmission.2
- Decellularized: Uses Matracell® technology to remove ≥97% of DNA and cellular remnants to decrease likelihood of immune response.2,3
- Intact Extracellular Matrix: Retains natural growth factors, collagen and elastin.2,4
- Convenient: Preservon® technology allows graft to be stored fully hydrated at room temperature (15°C - 30°C) so it can be used right out of the package, without lengthy OR reconstitution processes.1
Clinical Application
