Product Overview | Biomerix RCR Patch™

Biomerix RCR Patch™ featuring the Biomerix Biomaterial™

The Biomerix RCR Patch (29mm x 34mm) is designed for use in reinforcement of soft tissues that are repaired by suture or suture anchors during rotator cuff repair surgery.
The Biomerix Biomaterial™ is the essential feature that provides an environment to aid and fortify cellular ingrowth, as new tissue is remodeled by the body’s own restorative processes, resulting a high-quality soft tissue repair.

Biomerix RCR Patch’s construction is designed to:

  • Facilitate rapid fibrocollagenous tissue ingrowth for durable,
    constructive remodeling

    • The unique three-dimensional, open-cell macroporous architecture provides an ideal environment to support tissue remodeling
  • Permanent reinforcement throughout the entire healing response
    • A permanent implant with a highly accessible void content (>90%), the Biomerix RCR Patch supports tissue ingrowth for the duration of the reparative process, thereby providing long-term mechanical stability
  • Material demonstrates excellent biocompatibility
  • Only non-resorbable mesh indicated for rotator cuff repair, minimizing the inflammatory response associated with resorbable and biologic solutions
  • No risk of donor or prionic disease transmission
  • Offer a cost-effective solution
    • First and only implant solution for rotator cuff repair designed to
      provide permanent support and reinforcement at a competitive price
  • Optimize handling characteristics
    • The soft, flexible nature of the Biomerix RCR Patch allows it to conform to the target defect site with ease
    • Enables delivery arthoscopically, due to its inherent compliant and pliable structure
