Aroa Biosurgery Endoform Natural Dermal Template Collegen Dressing is an extracellular matrix which supports all phases of healing. Aroa BioSurgery Endoform Dermal Template is made of an extracellular matrix with 85% intact collagen scaffold and structural adhesion proteins designed to support each stage of wound healing. It offers more advantages over traditional collagen dressings because it is collagen and structural adhesion proteins to stabilize the wound, reduce inflammation, build new tissue and redistribute tissue. Endoform also has the ability to maintain the natural molecular form of collagen to maintain a moist wound environment needed to support new tissue growth. Wound healing and tissue growth are made possible by managing bacteria. The matrix targets multiple wound proteases which are enzymes that break down proteins and peptides in the wound. Research shows bacterial proteases breakdown bacterial biofilm to planktonic bacteria that are easier to manage and kill. The Endoform Natural is a 100% w/w intact extracellular matrix (ECM), manufactured from ovine (sheep) forestomach tissue. This advanced wound care device retains the innate biological structure of the native ECM, along with associated macromolecules including elastin, fibronectin, glycosaminoglycans and laminin. When rehydrated with wound exudate or sterile saline, Endoform Natural transforms into a soft conforming sheet, which is incorporated into the wound over time.

Features

• Accessible from day one.
• Broad spectrum modulation of wound proteases.
• Contains 148 secondary molecules that are important for healing.
• Provides a natural, porous ECM scaffold for rapid cell infiltration.

Indications for use

• Venous ulcers.
• Pressure ulcers.
• Diabetic ulcers.
• Draining wounds.
• Chronic vascular ulcers.
• Tunneled/undermined wounds.
• Partial and full thickness wounds.
• Traumatic wounds (abrasions, lacerations, second-degree burns, and skin tears).
• Surgical wounds (donor sites, grafts, post Moh’s surgery, post laser surgery, podiatric, wound dehiscence).

Usage Instructions

• 1. Prepare the wound bed by cleansing, irrigation and if necessary, debride to remove debris, necrotic tissue or infected tissue.
• 2. Select a sheet of the Endoform Natural which is slightly larger than the wound and apply aseptically.
• 3. Secure the device using an appropriate secondary dressing.
