EpiPatch™

“Flexibly fitting all shapes and sizes for seamless tympanic membrane repair.”

EpiPatch is used as a covering in surgical procedures, including revision cases involving residual or recurrent perforations. It is derived from human amniotic membrane and consists of extracellular matrix tissue. The graft is designed to be thin, flexible, and easily positioned over the surgical site to provide coverage. It can be placed without additional preparation and integrates into standard surgical techniques, supporting procedural efficiency for both the clinician and patient.

The tympanic membrane perforations repair system offers a versatile solution adaptable to different shapes and sizes of perforations. Its simplified procedure allows for in-office application under local anesthesia, eliminating the need for operating rooms and general anesthesia.

Devlopement and Compliance

BioMed’s EpiPatch, is developed from human amniotic tissue, selected for its natural elasticity and protective capabilities. This tissue, obtained following cesarean deliveries, undergoes decellularization to preserve its extracellular matrix (ECM).

These products comply with FDA guidelines, notably 21 CFR Part 1271, emphasizing their role as protective barriers that maintain elasticity, mirroring the amniotic tissue’s natural function. The decellularization process employs supercritical CO2 technology, which maintains the amniotic membrane’s structure and function, thus optimizing its therapeutic efficacy.

EpiPatch’s thinness, less than 0.1 mm, allows it to serve as a bioactive wound dressing that adheres upon contact, simplifying postoperative care, and is valued for its ease of use and storage.
