A new surgical mesh offers a significant reduction in both foreign body reaction and inflammation, promoting a well healed, reinforced soft tissue repair. The C-QURLite mesh combines a polypropylene mesh with a pharmaceutical grade Omega 3 fatty acid bio-absorbable (BA) gel coating, and is indicated for use in the surgical repair and reinforcement of soft tissue, including hernia repair. The mesh is constructed from ProLite Ultra polypropylene monofilament, providing a low profile, strong, lightweight base structure. The all natural Omega 3 gel coating is then applied, coating each monofilament of the mesh to enhance material handling and subsequent healing. Pre-clinical studies have demonstrated that combining inert thin wall polypropylene mesh with an Omega 3 biological coating results in minimization of peritoneal tissue attachment and significantly improve anatomical conformance by reducing aggressive, dense acellular collagen formation known to induce adhesions following surgery. The BA coating also enhances ease of handling and tissue plane placement, which subsequently forms into a soft and flexible implant. Improved stiffness and handling qualities and excellent see-thru visibility to underlying tissue landmarks provide improved anatomical orientation during surgical installation. The C-QURLite mesh, a product of Atrium Medical (Hudson, NH, USA) has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and will be available in a wide variety of preferred anatomical laser cut shapes and sizes mid-year 2007.
