One Product, Two Indications

Providing surgeons with a solution throughout the continuum of soft tissue repair

Restrata for Soft Tissue Reinforcement is indicated for implantation to reinforce soft tissue where weakness exists, in patients requiring soft tissue repair and/or reinforcement in plastics or reconstructive surgery.14

What is Soft Tissue Reinforcement?

Restrata for Soft Tissue Reinforcement is indicated for implantation to reinforce soft tissue where weakness exists, in patients requiring soft tissue repair and/or reinforcement in plastics or reconstructive surgery.

Product Benefits

  • Offers mechanical support for closures that may be at risk of wound breakdown or dehiscence
  • Designed to mitigate wound breakdown or dehiscence, potentially reducing complications in high-risk patients and threatened closures14, 15, 20, 21​

 

Tensile strength similar to human skin and maintains some strength for 7-10 days after implantation, reinforcing subcutaneous closure during the 5-10 day window where the risk of dehiscence is the greatest2, 22-24, 28, 31

 

Incidence and impact of surgical site complications on length of stay and cost of care for patients undergoing open procedures

“Surgical site complications (SSCs) such as dehiscence, postoperative seroma, skin complications and non-healing wounds can be serious and even life-threatening for patients and often result in increased health care utilization.”

Restrata vs. Intact Fish Skin

Results from a pre-clinical porcine model where both Restrata and intact fish skin were used to reinforce soft tissue:23

Day 3

  • Tissue reinforced by Restrata was 49% stronger than tissue reinforced by fish skin

Day 10

  • Tissue reinforced by Restrata was 49% stronger than tissue reinforced by fish skin
  • Tissue reinforced by Restrata was 21% stronger than tissue reinforced by fish skin
  • Restrata was observed to be more persistent (less degraded) than fish skin
  • Restrata had a lower tissue reactivity score compared to fish skin

Results from a benchtop study:

  • In a benchtop study, after 72 hours of pre-conditioning designed to simulate in vivo conditions, Restrata’s burst strength was 23X stronger than intact fish skin.24
