The OviTex® Reinforced Tissue Matrix Device is a sterile reinforced matrix device comprised of non-dermal sourced layers of extracellular matrix (ECM) (ovine (sheep) derived ECM), paired with a minimal suture footprint. OviTex Reinforced Tissue Matrix Device provides an alternative device solution to permanent synthetic, resorbable/bioabsorbable synthetic, and biologic meshes. The device remodels and helps regenerate tissue while reinforcing the repair and providing structural support. Reinforced tissue matrices enhance performance while maintaining compatibility with the body. The OviTex Reinforced Tissue Matrix Device is used for hernia repair and abdominal wall reconstruction.
A bioabsorbable, implantable material (e.g., flat sheet) made from animal-derived collagen intended for extra-gynaecological, non-dental tissue repair/reinforcement application(s) [e.g., pericardial reinforcement, plastic surgery, abdominal hernia repair]; some types may also be intended for use as a short-term scaffold for tissue regeneration. It is constructed of collagen, which might be cross-linked (e.g., with glutaraldehyde); it does not include antimicrobial agents/materials. Disposable devices associated with implantation may be supplied with the mesh.
