SUPRA SDRM is a synthetic, guided wound closure matrix
INTENDED USES: Indicated for use in the management of: Pressure (stage I and IV) and venous ulcers, Partial thickness burns, Ulcers caused by mixed vascular Etiologies, Trauma wounds, Venous stasis and diabetic ulcers, Surgical wounds, Partial and full thickness wounds
CLAIMED BENEFITS: SUPRA SDRM is built as a bimodal foam membrane structure for the management of chronic wounds. SUPRA SDRM combines the benefits of the microporous structure known from Suprathel® that builds a protective barrier allowing the wound to heal and additional large pores which were created to enable ingrowth of blood vessels. SUPRA SDRM is fully synthetic – no animal derived components – polylactic acid as the main component reduces the biologic risk. No preparation of SUPRA SDRM matrix is necessary. When applied to the wound SUPRA SDRM adheres well to the wound bed without the need for direct fixation. SUPRA SDRM becomes translucent after the application allowing healthcare professionals to easily assess the wound healing. SUPRA SDRM is available in multiple sizes and can be trimmed to meet the patient’s needs.
OPTIONS: Per Square Centimeter
The addition of Skin Substitutes or Cellular or Tissue Based Products (CTPs) to certain wounds may afford a healing advantage over dressings and conservative treatments when these options appear insufficient to affect complete healing, after at least a 30 day period of comprehensive conservative therapy. There are currently a wide variety of bioengineered products available for soft tissue coverage to affect closure. • Human skin allografts are derived from donated human skin (cadavers) • Allogeneic matrices are derived from human tissue (fibroblasts or membrane) • Composite matrices are derived from human keratinocytes, fibroblasts and xenogeneic collagen • Acellular matrices are derived from allogeneic (non-related human donors) or xenogeneic (other species) collagen, membrane, or cellular remnants
For Medicare to cover this product, it needs to be ordered and applied by your clinician. A patient cannot purchase it directly from a Durable Medical Equipment (DME) store and receive reimbursement for it.
