ACTIFUSE ABX, ACTIFUSE SHAPE and ACTIFUSE MIS:
Actifuse™ is a bone void filler intended only for orthopaedic applications as a filler for gaps and voids that are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. Actifuse is indicated to be packed gently into bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system, i.e., extremities, pelvis, and spine, including use in posterolateral fusion procedures with appropriate stabilizing hardware and intervertebral disc space. These defects may be surgically created osseous defects or osseous defects created from traumatic injury to the bone. The product provides a bone void filler that resorbs and is replaced by bone during the healing process.
When used in the intervertebral disc space, Actifuse must be used with an intervertebral body fusion device cleared by FDA for use with a bone void filler.
ALTAPORE:
ALTAPORE is an implant intended to fill bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system (i.e., extremities, posterolateral spine, intervertebral disc space, and pelvis). ALTAPORE can be used by itself, with autograft as a bone graft extender or with autogenous bone marrow aspirate. These osseous defects may be surgically created or the result of traumatic injury to the bone and are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. ALTAPORE resorbs and is replaced with bone during the healing process.
When used in the intervertebral disc space, ALTAPORE must be used with an intervertebral body fusion device cleared by FDA for use with a bone void filler.
ALTAPORE SHAPE:
ALTAPORE SHAPE is an implant intended to fill bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system (i.e. extremities, posterolateral spine, intervertebral disc space, and pelvis).
ALTAPORE SHAPE can be used by itself or with autograft as a bone graft extender in posterolateral spinal fusion procedures. These osseous defects may be surgically created or the result of traumatic injury to the bone and are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. ALTAPE resorbs and is replaced with bone during the healing process.
When used in the intervertebral disc space. ALTAPORE SHAPE must be used with an intervertebral body fusion device cleared by FDA for use with a bone void filler.
ALTAPORE MIS: ALTAPORE MIS is an implant intended to fill bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system (i.e., extremities, posterolateral spine, intervertebral disc space, and pelvis).
ALTAPORE MIS can be used by itself, with autograft as a bone graft extender or with autogenous bone marrow aspirate. These osseous defects may be surgically created or the result of traumatic injury to the bone and are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. ALTAPORE MIS resorbs and is replaced with bone during the healing process.
When used in the intervertebral disc space, ALTAPORE MIS must be used with an intervertebral body fusion device cleared by FDA for use with a bone void filler.
ACTIFUSE ABX, ACTIFUSE SHAPE, ACTIFUSE MIS
Actifuse is a phase-pure, porous, silicate-substituted calcium phosphate osteoconductive bone void filler, comprising a single-phase calcium phosphate scaffold, either granules or granules delivered in a matrix of resorbable polymer. 0.8wt% silicon (Si) is incorporated into the crystalline structure. The interconnected and open porous structure of Actifuse is similar to human cancellous bone. After it is implanted, ACTIFUSE undergoes physiologically-mediated resorption and is replaced by natural bone
ACTIFUSE is osteostimulatory based upon in vitro studies that show cellular responses, such as metabolic activity and proliferation, are accelerated when compared to an identical that did not contain 0.8% silicon by weight..
ACTIFUSE is bioactive based on in vitro studies that show it forms a surface apatite-layer when submerged in simulated body fluid that contains the same ion concentrations as human blood plasma. This apatite layer provides scaffolding onto which the patient's new bone will grow, allowing complete repair of the defect.
ACTIFUSE is osteoconductive based on in vivo animal studies that show it achieves bone healing in a critical defect model as confirmed with radiographic, histolopathological, histomorphometric, and mechanical analyses.
The Actifuse bone void filler is presented in multiple product variants:
ACTIFUSE ABX
ACTIFUSE ABX presents the ACTIFUSE bioactive and osteoconductive silicate-substituted calcium phosphate bone void filler suspended in an absorbable aqueous gel carrier packaged in a wide-bore applicator. ACTIFUSE ABX is a sterile, single-use device available in volumes of 1.5 ml, 2.5 ml, 5 ml, 10 ml, and 20 ml.
ACTIFUSE ABX is designed for use as a standalone bone graft substitute or as an autograft extender. While not necessary, the product can be mixed with autologous blood, autologous bone marrow aspirate, or autologous bone at the discretion of the surgeon.
ACTIFUSE MIS
ACTIFUSE MIS System is an ACTIFUSE ABX packaging configuration in which the ACTIFUSE ABX implant material is supplied in a sterile 7.5ml cartridge packed with ACTIFUSE ABX implant material is presented with a delivery applicator and as a separate 7.5ml refill cartridge.
ACTIFUSE SHAPE
ACTIFUSE SHAPE supplies the ACTIFUSE bioactive and osteoconductive silicate-substituted calcium phosphate bone void filler suspended in an absorbable Alkylene Oxide co-polymer carrier as a shaped wax-like putty in a sterile pouch. ACTIFUSE SHAPE is available as a 1.6 ml small cylinder, 2.6 ml medium cylinder, 8 ml large cylinder, and 15.8 ml large strip.
ACTIFUSE SHAPE is designed for use as a standalone bone graft substitute or as an autograft extender. While not necessary, the product can be mixed with autologous blood or autologous bone at the discretion of the surgeon.
ALTAPORE
ALTAPORE is a bioactive and osteoconductive silicate-substituted calcium phosphate bone void filler. The interconnected and open porous structure of the silicate-substituted calcium phosphate phase of ALTAPORE is similar to human cancellous bone and is intended to support bone growth with macro and micro- porosity. ALTAPORE is composed solely of elements that exist naturally in normal bone (Ca. P. O. H. Si).
ALTAPORE is supplied in a sterile applicator and contains ALTAPORE microgranules, sized 1-2 mm, 80-85% total porosity, suspended in an absorbable aqueous gel carrier. ALTAPORE does not set in-situ following implantation. ALTAPORE is available in 1.5 ml, 2.5 ml, 5 ml, 10 ml, and 20 ml configurations.
ALTAPORE is designed for use as a standalone bone graft substitute or as an autograft extender. While not necessary, the product can be mixed with Bone Marrow Aspirate (BMA) or autologous bone at the discretion of the surgeon.
ALTAPORE is bioactive based on in vitro studies that show it forms a surface apatite layer when submerged in simulated body fluid that contains the same ion concentrations as human blood plasma. This apatite layer provides scaffolding onto which the patient's new bone will grow, allowing complete repair of the defect.
ALTAPORE is osteoconductive based on in vivo animal studies that show it achieves bone healing in a critical defect model as confirmed with radiographic, histolopathological, histomorphometric, and mechanical analyses. ALTAPORE undergoes cell-mediated remodeling and is replaced by natural bone.
