Procedure

JumpStart antimicrobial wound dressing is an advanced microcurrent-generating dressing used for the management of surgical incision sites. Microcell batteries made of elemental silver and zinc generate an electrical current when activated by conductive fluids, such as wound exudate, water-based wound hydrogels, saline, or water. These microcell batteries create microcurrents to support the body's natural electrical healing process and to provide antimicrobial protection to assist with wound healing. JumpStart antimicrobial wound dressing has demonstrated broad-spectrum bactericidal activity against antibiotic-resistant strains of wound isolates within 24 hours.

Interfyl connective tissue matrix is used to fill irregular spaces or soft-tissue deficits resulting from wounds, trauma, or surgery. Interfyl connective tissue matrix is suited for a variety of surgical applications when there is a need to replace or supplement damaged or inadequate integumental tissue.

Interfyl®  Human Connective Tissue Matrix

Kirk A. McCullough, MD (Leawood, KS), discusses the benefits and applications of augmentation with placental tissue products, including Biovance® amniotic membrane and Interfyl® connective tissue matrix (CTM), for foot and ankle orthopedic procedures. Biovance membrane serves as a natural scaffold that supports a high level of fibroblast and keratinocyte attachment,1 or as a barrier membrane during the wound regeneration process to support tissue growth.2 Interfyl CTM provides a native extracellular matrix for cell attachment.3
