Parametrics Medical products

OsteoSource™ allograft bone particulates have osteoconductive properties and are well suited to fill bone structure defects. Osteoconductive allografts act as a scaffold for the growth of natural bone. Over time, the natural bone replaces the donor’s bone. OsteoSource™ eliminates the need for autograft bone, associated with donor site morbidity, longer surgery time, and increased recovery time.

Machined interbody spacers provide a natural osteoconductive option for spine fusion. The allograft bone is precision machined to provide an optimal fit and stability between the allograft and adjacent vertebral bodies. Parametrics Medical offers spacers in various profiles, footprints, and heights.

Demineralized bone matrix (DBM) is decalcified allograft bone with osteoinductive potential. The demineralization process exposes growth factors, such as bone morphogenetic proteins (BMP), trapped by minerals. Growth factors recruit immature cells and stimulate those cells to develop into active bone-forming cells called osteoblasts.

EnduriFuse is allograft bone containing viable bone-derived cells. This innovative graft contains properties ideal for the growth of natural bone: An osteoconductive three-dimensional scaffold with cortical and cancellous components. A demineralized bone scaffold with osteoinductive potential containing growth factors that recruit immature cells and stimulate those cells to develop into active bone-forming cells called osteoblasts. Bone-derived cells to support the osteogenic process. Osteogenesis is the growth of natural bone from preexisting living cells.

Synthetic bone void fillers are safe, biocompatible, and easy to use. These resorbable biomaterials are based on nano-crystalline hydroxyapatite (HA) and purified collagen technologies. These products are engineered to optimize the resorption rate. Our granules are composed of 60% HA and 40% β-Tricalcium Phosphate (TCP). The formulation provides optimal osteoconduction, and the composition mimics that of human cancellous bone. Our strips are a combination of granules embedded in a fibrillar bovine collagen matrix. Once rehydrated, the foam is flexible. Our bioactive glass foam strips are sterile bone grafts composed of highly purified fibrillar Type I bovine collagen, bioactive glass granules, and HA/TCP granules. It functions as an osteogenic stimulus to which the patient’s bone marrow can be added before implantation.
