MEMBRANE FOR TISSUE REGENERATION IN ENT

TRANSFORMATION IN AUTOLOGOUS TISSUE Guided tissue regeneration occurs by isolating an area without bone from the soft covering tissues. The connective tissue regrows faster than the bone, occupying the area without bone and preventing bone regeneration. Audiomesh Biomembrane grants an high mechanical resistance to enable suturing points fixation. The space bone defect can be filled with biocompatible material and covered by Audiomesh Biomembrane. Audiomesh Biomembrane is a micro thin network made of natural connective fibers which prevents the cell migration and mantains the...

Audiomesh is thin and can be adapted to any shape, keeping enough resistance to be sutured to the surrounding tissue. Audiomesh gets perfectly integrated with patient's tissue and gets reabsorbed without any inflammatory response. Audiomesh Biomembrane is made of equine pericardium network of collagen fibers. For this reason, the thickness of 0,05 mm offers a mechanical strength higher than other animal biological sheets with which Audiomesh Biomembrane has been compared.

RESISTANT TO INFECTIONS IN EXPOSED AREAS The incomparable micro structure made of fibers interwoven in various sizes, achieves a physical resistance. For these properties Audiomesh Biomembrane offers the possibility to replace missing or torn tissues. Audiomesh Biomembrane can be kept exposed for wide areas which are not covered with tissue, since it does not cause hypertrophy and polypous degeneration of the free flaps as occurs on artifi-cial membranes. Moreover, it acts as a guide for the epithelial tissue new growth. The collagen of Audiomesh Biomembrane is impermeable to cells...

HIGH ADHESION AUDIOMESH Biomembrane grants strong adhesive properties. UDS Audiomesh Biomembrane has a translucent surface (mediaspinal side) and an UDS opaque surface (cardiac side). SEM image of the opaque surface, which is more adhesive: irregular interwoving of connectival fibers. TESTED IN DIFFICULT SITUATIONS t Audiomesh Biomembrane is used as tympanic prosthesis in otology, for reconstruc-tion of septum ulcers in rhino-logy and for guided tissue rigeneration of the bony vault. In the first case, both surfaces of the membrane are widely exposed to air since they are not covered by...

AUDIOMESH IN OTOLOGY Audiomesh Tympanic can be used as tympanum substitute (Neotympanum). It's possible to adapt the external auditory canal (EUC) till the osseous anulus, to create a proper slot for the Neotympanum. The Neotympanum should be placed in the EUC till reaching the anulus. In case the ossicular chain is present, the Neotympanum can be placed in two ways: • Placed on the ossicular chain • Linked with the ossicular chain with the manubrium of the malleus which should pass in a hole made in the Audiomesh. The hole should be previously pierced in a position which will allow the...

AUDIOMESH IN RHINOLOGY: R 20.01 Small; R 20.02 Medium; R 20.03 Large AhhRRR AUDIOMESH is available Lyophilized (dried) or conserved in bacteriostatic liquid. AUDIOMESH Lyophilized is ready to be used: it can be placed dried or hydrated. AUDIOMESH conserved in liquid should be washed 3 times before being placed: it’s suggested to use 3 bowls with 100 cc of saline each and wash Audiomesh for 10 minutes in each bowl. • AUDIOMESH is suitable in closing nasal septum perforations. After creating septal nasal tunnels on the right and on the left side, two Audiomesh membranes (one Left and one...

AudioMesh® is a connective sheet derived from equine pericardium. The sacrified animals are provided with veterinerary certification of eligibility. The pericardium sheet is transported to the laboratory where the most suitable parts for constructions of the membrane are selected. The selected sheets are treated with proteolytic enzymes and subsequently dipped in solutions which stop the enzymatic action. The selected sheets are examined under the microscope segment by segment, to identify the areas most suitable for use on the basis of the consistency and resistance of the network collagen...
