Intended Use
The Nerve Capping Device is indicated to protect a peripheral nerve end and to separate the nerve from surrounding environment to reduce the development of a symptomatic neuroma.
Device Description
The Nerve Capping Device is a sterile biodegradable nerve cuff composed of the bioresorbable copolyester poly(DL-lactide-s-caprolactone). It is a tubular device with one open end and one sealed end which functions as a cap, isolating the nerve end. The capping device prevents dislocation of the stump by pulling the nerve end into the tube and suturing in the nerve within the cap. Consequently, the end of the cap will be sutured to surrounding tissue. One hole at the sealed end of the tube allows easy fixation with a suture to the surrounding tissue. The size of the product is 3cm in length, and is available in different diameters for different sized nerves. The Nerve Capping Device is sterilized in a pouch package. The device is single-use, cannot be re-sterilized, and is a prescription product.
