Bacterially inactivated DermaMatrix Acellular Dermis

DermaMatrix Acellular Dermis is processed by the Epidermis Musculoskeletal Transplant Foundation (MTF) and is available through Synthes CMF.

DermaMatrix tissue is an allograft derived from donated human skin. The epidermis and dermis are removed from the subcutaneous layer of the skin during the recovery procedure. The tissue is then processed using a sodium Dermis chloride solution and detergent to remove the epidermis and all viable dermal cells while maintaining the original dermal collagen matrix. The cells are removed to minimize Subcutaneous layer inflammation or rejection at the surgical site. Normal human skin DermaMatrix Acellular Dermis is then treated in a disinfection solution that combines detergents with acidic and antiseptic reagents to further clean the tissue so that it passes the United States Pharmacopeia Chapter 71 (USP <71>) for sterility. Finally, it is cut to size, freeze-dried and packaged in a terminally sterilized double pouch and envelope.

When ready for use, DermaMatrix tissue should be rehydrated in at least 100 ml of sterile, room temperature saline or DermaMatrix 3D Collagen Matrix lactated Ringer’s solution. It will typically rehydrate to a uniformly soft and pliable consistency. Rehydration time is dependent on the thickness and size of the graft. Additional Transplanted rinsing to remove any residuals is not needed. Acellular Dermis

After DermaMatrix Acellular Dermis is transplanted into the Fibroblasts patient, host cells begin to infiltrate the three-dimensional collagen matrix. The patient’s blood vessels revascularize the implant and fibroblasts are incorporated into the matrix.

2 Synthes DermaMatrix Acellular Dermis Clinical Applications

DermaMatrix tissue is for homologous use only. Homologous use as defined by the FDA is: The replacement or supplementation of a recipient’s tissue with a tissue form that performs the same basic function or functions in the recipient as in the donor.

Clinical applications include, but are not limited to, the following: – Parotidectomy – Tympanoplasty Breast reconstruction Oral cavity repair – Facial soft tissue defects postmastectomy – Facial sling – Lower eyelid reconstruction – Nasal reconstruction – Nasal septal perforation – Cleft palate repair – Oral resurfacing – Vestibuloplasty – Radial forearm freeflap repair – Breast reconstruction postmastectomy – Abdominal wall repair Nasal septal perforation Abdominal wall repair

Indications DermaMatrix tissue is processed to remove cells while maintaining the integrity of the matrix with the intent to address the issues of the specific and nonspecific inflammatory responses. It is used for the replacement of damaged or inadequate integumental tissue or for the repair, reinforcement or supplemental support of soft tissue defects.

Contraindications Use of DermaMatrix tissue in patients exhibiting autoimmune connective tissue disease is not recommended. – Specific or nonspecific immune response to some component of the graft

6 Synthes DermaMatrix Acellular Dermis Structural analysis Structural analysis of acellular dermis using high power transmission electron microscopy reveals that the collagen and elastin components of the extracellular matrix are preserved after processing. Collagen in normal skin is observed in the cross section while in the acellular dermis, the fibers are observed oriented in the transverse direction. Elastin appears as an amorphic structure in both sections. Higher magnification reveals normal periodicity of collagen fibrils in the specimens. TEM analysis shows amorphic elastin and fibrous collagen structures in normal skin (left) and acellular dermis (right).

Synthes has partnered exclusively with the Musculoskeletal MTF’s standards are set by Transplant Foundation (MTF) for over 10 years to provide their Medical Board of Trustees — high quality tissue for patients. Although there are national more than 40 surgeons from standards for tissue banks, they only set a baseline for the world-renowned academic institutions. industry. Beyond that, regulations leave a lot to interpretation, so standards vary significantly from tissue bank to tissue bank. MTF offers safe allografts processed from among the most carefully selected donors.

Directed by Surgeons MTF utilizes a Medical Board of Trustees comprised of more than forty surgeons from world-renowned academic institutions. MTF’s board sets standards, which are among some of the most stringent in the industry.

Selecting the Ideal Donor MTF’s extensive network of participating organ procurement organizations ensures that MTF has access to a broad selection of qualified donors. MTF holds itself to stringent MTF Donor Deferral Rate standards for donor selection and processing criteria. MTF > 97% < 3% defers more donors than they accept. deferred accepted

Preserving and Protecting Tissue Integrity MTF’s approach ensures a high level of safety, without compromising biological and mechanical integrity. Not all forms of human tissue are the same, nor should they be processed the same way. MTF has developed and validated several tissue cleaning technologies to provide safe and high quality allograft bone. Since MTF’s inception, MTF has maintained an exemplary safety record distributing more than 5 million allografts from over 90,000 donors.
