Description
Medtronic MeroGel Nasal Packing
- MeroGel® nasal packing is a bioresorbable woven fleece that may be used dry or hydrated after functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS).
- In its dry state, MeroGel nasal packing absorbs up to 10 times its weight in liquids and helps control minimal bleeding.
- When hydrated, the biopolymer gradually transforms into a muco-adhesive gel in approximately 24-48 hours. It separates mucosal surfaces and slowly dissolves after approximately 2 weeks, eliminating the need for painful nasal packing removal for your patients.
