Clinical Efficacy in the Reduction of Infections of the Surgical Site with the Use of Biodegradable Membrane Containing Gentamicine
Autrici: Dott.sse Silvestrini- Leto- Colelli che ringraziamo per l’ autorizzazione alla pubblicazione.
The animal collagen membrane (equine or bovine) containing
implantable and completely resorbable gentamicin sulphate is
used in the treatment and prevention of surgical site infections, in
contaminated skin lesions, in support of systemic administration of
antibiotics. The biodegradable membrane containing gentamicin
has haemostatic action and promotes tissue repair, consists of two
components: renineal equine / bovine collagen type 1 (equal to
2.8mg/cm2) and gentamicin sulphate with an active dosage locally
(equal at 2mg/cm2) which has bactericidal activity towards a broad
spectrum of pathogens:
• Escherichia coli
• Proteus species
• Klebsiella pneumoniae
• Enterobacter species
• Serratia marcensens
• Citrobacter species
• Providentia
• Acinetobacter
• Pseudomonas aeruginosa and other
• Streptococcus pyogenes and faecalis
• Bacterioids
• Staphylococcus species (including penicillin & methicillin
resistant families)…
