Integra Bilayer Matrix Wound Dressing 2in x 2in, 5cm x 5cm- 3 Pieces Partial Box
Part # BMW202 Exp 7/16
Integra Bilayer Matrix Wound Dressing is an advanced wound care device comprised of a porous matrix of cross-linked bovine tendon collagen and glycosaminoglycan and a semi-permeable polysiloxane (silicone layer).
The semi-permeable silicone membrane controls water vapor loss, provides a flexible adherent covering for the wound surface and adds increased tear strength to the device.
The collagen-glycosaminoglycan biodegradable matrix provides a scaffold for cellular invasion and capillary growth.
