Description
Bring ProGrip™ technology to your hernia repair procedures.
The resorbable polylactic acid (PLA) microgrips of ProGrip™ self-gripping polypropylene mesh provide a vast constellation of uniform fixation points across the entire mesh surface.†,‡,§,1
This technology supports good tissue integration,◊,2 prevents the mesh from shifting during placement,¶,#,3 and facilitates easy positioning.3–5
† Based on benchtop data, not necessarily indicative of human clinical outcomes.
‡ The technique used to fixate the mesh (suture and/or tacks) is left up to the surgeon.
§ The textile self-gripping feature makes it possible to position the mesh without fixation, depending on the size of the defect, the hernia position, and the quality of the anatomical structures.
◊ Based on animal study, not necessarily indicative of human clinical outcomes.
¶ Based on preclinical data, not necessarily indicative of human clinical outcomes.
