A novel medicated surgical hydrogel to prevent epidural adhesions post-laminectomy
Purpose:
In a collaborative team effort between the ENT department at The University of Adelaide and centres of excellence in New Zealand, we have developed “Chitodex” surgical gel, which uses a polymer derived from squid. The gel possesses both anti-bleeding and anti-scarring properties which will be further strengthened by incorporating compounds with potent wound-healing properties. The new product will be used around the world to reduce complications after spine surgery.
