Intended purpose
Neuroflex is intended for use in repair of peripheral nerve discontinuities where gap closure can be achieved by flexion of the extremity.
Functional description
NeuroFlex is a resorbable, non-friable, semipermeable, collagen tubular matrix designed to create a conduit for axonal growth across a nerve gap. Neuroflex has an added kink-resistant property, which allows the tube to bend without kinking or collapsing.
