Description
Integra® NeuraGen® Nerve Guide
The NeuraGen® Nerve Guide is a resorbable implant for the repair of peripheral nerve discontinuities. NeuraGen® Nerve Guide provides a protective environment for peripheral nerve repair after injury. It is designed to be an interface between the nerve and surrounding tissue and to create a conduit for axonal growth across a nerve gap.
When hydrated, NeuraGen® Nerve Guide is an easy to handle, soft, pliable, nonfriable, porous collagen tube. NeuraGen® Nerve Guide is single use only and provided sterile.
- Biocompatible – Manufactured from purified collagen, minimizing pathogenic1 and immunogenic concerns
- Pore Structure – Specific pore size and semi-permeable architecture allowing for nutrient diffusion and retention of representative Nerve Growth Factor
- Controlled Rate of Resorption – Resorbs in approximately 9-12 months allowing for nerve regeneration to occur prior to degradation
- Flexible and Pliable – Accommodates the movement of joints and tendons surrounding the nerve without kinking
- Compression Resistant – Fully compliant with elastic rebound to original shape upon compression

- FDA Product Code: JXI
- FDA Product Code Name: Cuff, Nerve
- GMDN Term Code: 43233
- GMDN Term Name: Nerve guide, animal-derived
- GMDN Term Description: An implantable tubular device made exclusively of animal-derived bioabsorbable material(s) [e.g., porcine-derived collagen matrix, chitosan] intended to be used to create a tunnel through which a discontinuous peripheral nerve can regenerate to bridge the proximal and distal nerve stumps. The device is typically used during hand surgery and/or nerve reconstruction. It is intended to be chemically degraded and typically absorbed via natural body processes. It is also known as a nerve sheath, nerve cuff, nerve protector, nerve conduit, or a nerve wrap.
