TIGR® Matrix Surgical Mesh - indications for use for use in reinforcement of soft tissue where weakness exists In January 2010 the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) gave the company 510(k) clearance to market TIGR® Matrix Surgical Mesh for use in reinforcement of soft tissue where weakness exists. In July 2011 Novus Scientific’s Quality Management System was certified by BSI to ISO 13485:2003 for the following scope: Design, control of manufacture and supply of sterile resorbable synthetic surgical mesh for reinforcement of soft tissue. In August 2011 Novus Scientific received CE Mark approval for TIGR® Matrix Surgical Mesh in Europe.

Data on file: Novus Scientific For six months TIGR® Matrix Surgical Mesh maintains mechanical integrity equivalent to a lightweight polypropylene mesh and initially is twice that strong. High strength is crucial in the initial wound healing phase. Beyond that the increasing mechanical compliance of TIGR® Matrix is designed to promote remodelling of native tissue.

TIGR® Matrix Surgical Mesh is stronger for much longer than other synthetic absorbable meshes and is designed to have gradually increasing mechanical compliance. VicrylTM (Polyglactin 910) for example degrades in a matter of 2-3 weeks. The long-term resorption of TIGR® Matrix gives the recipient tissue time to respond to the increasing mechanical load. TIGR® Matrix Surgical Mesh THE CONCEPT OF MECHAnotrANSduction* Muscles and tendons become stronger in response to repetitive loading. “Tendons adapt to changes in mechanical loading, and numerous animal studies show that immobilization of a healing tendon is detrimental to the healing process.” “collagen networks are mechanosensitive in that they are stabilized by mechanical strain.” *mechanotransduction is the physiological process where cells sense and respond to mechanical loads Br J Sports Med 2009;43:247-252 doi:10.1136/bjsm.2008.054239 TIGR® Matrix Surgical Mesh PRODUCT - time dependent mechanical characteristics wound healing phase remodeling phase required physiological elasticity in vertical stretching (25 ± 7 %) INCREASING MECHANICAL COMPLIANCE 20 19 16.2 DECREA SING MECHANIC 15 AL S 13.2 TRE NG 10.8 TH Strain at 16N/cm (%) 10.2 (day 0) (day Parietex Composite Parietex Prolene (day 277) (day (day 182) (day 7.3 (day 28) (day 7 6.5 Parietex Flat SheetTEC 5.3 3.5 Bard Gore Dualmesh Proceed C-Qur Lite Small Ultrapro Matrix Matrix ® TIGR Matrix ® TIGR Matrix ® TIGR Matrix ® TIGR DAY 0 Physiomechanical Properties of Permanent Meshes compared to TIGR® Matrix The increasing mechanical compliance results in a Deeken CR, et al.

TIGR® Matrix Surgical Mesh was developed The elasticity of TIGR® Matrix Surgical Mesh based on the hypothesis that soft tissue increases over time, reaching normal positively remodels in response to the physiological levels after 6 months. stimulus of increased mechanical load. TIGR® Matrix Surgical Mesh PRODUCT - why long-term resorbable /absorbable? Wound healing is a long-term process. In particular, the time taken to regain 50% of normal tissue strength is typically 3 months, after which about 80% of normal tissue strength is ultimately achieved. The time scale can be significantly longer in some patients. Approximate times of the different phases of wound healing, with faded intervals marking substantial variation, depending mainly on wound size and healing conditions.
