The BEAR® (Bridge-Enhanced ACL Restoration) Implant is a bovine extracellular matrix collagen-based implant for treatment of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries. The BEAR® Implant is indicated for adults, adolescents and children with a complete or partial rupture of the ACL, as confirmed by MRI. Patients must have an ACL stump attached to the tibia to construct the repair. Children with open physes must have sufficient bone in the femoral and tibial epiphyses on either side of the intended tunnel locations to avoid disruption of the growth plates.
The BEAR® Implant (nominal 22 mm in diameter and 44 mm in length) is cylindrical in shape and comprised of collagen and extracellular matrix derived from bovine connective tissue, which has been cleaned, disinfected and processed by a proprietary manufacturing method. The implant has been terminally sterilized by electron-beam irradiation and is intended to be used with up to 10 ml of autologous blood drawn during the surgical implantation procedure. The BEAR® Implant stabilizes the blood in the gap between the torn ligament ends. The BEAR® Implant is resorbed within 8 weeks and replaced with a fibrovascular repair tissue.
