Nerve Wrap is indicated for the management of peripheral nerve injuries where there is no gap.

The proposed BioCircuit Technologies, Inc. Nerve Wrap device is composed of a bioabsorbable, layered extracellular collagen matrix (decellularized porcine small intestinal submucosa, SIS). The SIS material that comprises the Nerve Wrap is identical to the backing material of its reference predicate, Nerve Tape (K233533). The Nerve Wrap is implanted around a damaged peripheral nerve to provide a scaffold which becomes infiltrated and remodeled by the patient's cells. The device protects the nerve while the nerve heals and provides a non-constricting interface between the nerve and the surrounding tissue. The device is packaged and supplied sterile in a clamshell container inside a sealed pouch. The dimensions of the finished device are 45mm x 22mm, with 2 - 3 layers of laminated SIS. The device is intended for implantation around nerves of diameters up to 7mm.

NerveTape is indicated for the repair of peripheral nerve discontinuities where can be achieved by flexion of the extremity.

The proposed BioCircuit Technologies, Inc. NerveTape device is composed of a bioabsorbable, extracellular collagen matrix (small intestinal submucosa, SIS) with integrated microhooks made of a nickel-titanium alloy, commonly referred to as NiTiNOL (identical to the predicate), for mechanical fixation and apposition of nerve ends. The NerveTape is implanted around an injured nerve to provide a scaffold which becomes infiltrated and remodeled by the patient's cells. The device protects the damaged or severed nerve while the nerve heals. The device is packaged and supplied sterile in a clamshell container inside a sealed pouch. The device is identical to the predicate, except for the SIS substrate manufacturer and the addition of a smaller size. The dimensions of the finished device range from 11mm x 12mm x 22mm. The device is intended for the repair of nerves of diameters ranging from 1.5mm to 7mm.
