OssDsign Catalyst is an osteoconductive, resorbable, porous, 100% nanosynthetic calcium phosphate bone void filler. OssDsign Catalyst contains 5.8 wt% silicon-substituted calcium phosphate granules suspended in a resorbable polymer gel. The final, finished OssDsign Catalyst is 30 wt% granules and 70 wt% polymer gel. The high surface area porous granules have been designed to deliver consistent and rapid bone ingrowth, remodeling and cell-mediated resorption during the bone healing process. The aqueous polymer gel phase binds the highly porous granules into a moldable, pliable formulation which enables OssDsign Catalyst to be implanted directly from the packaging without any further gelation, mixing or graft setting time. OssDsign Catalyst is provided sterile to the end user in 2.5 cc, 5 cc and 10 cc sizes. (510(k) no. K193075)
A bioabsorbable, implantable device made of a synthetic material(s) intended to replace bone lost through trauma, surgery, or pathological conditions (e.g., osteoporosis); it is not dedicated to dental applications and does not include an antimicrobial agent(s). It may be made of ceramics (e.g., tricalcium phosphate or hydroxyapatite), bioactive glasses/minerals/metals (e.g., strontium), or bioabsorbable polymers. Also referred to as a graft, matrix, or void filler, it typically provides an osteoconductive scaffold that promotes bone growth, and is used to fill cystic defects, repair fractures, and/or extend autogenous bone grafts. It may have adhesive properties.
