GalaFORM 3D scaffold is a bioresorbable surgical mesh manufactured from poly-4-hydroxybutyrate (P4HB). P4HB is produced from a naturally occurring monomer and is processed into monofilament fibers and knitted into a surgical scaffold. The scaffold has a 3D curvature supported with a P4HB rim designed to promote better conformance with a patient's anatomy in locations in which a flat design does not easily conform. P4HB bioresorbs through a process of hydrolysis and hydrolytic enzymatic digestion. It has been developed to optimize resorption rate and prolong strength retention in order to provide support throughout the expected period of healing. Although the scaffold loses strength with time, its porous construction was designed to allow native tissue ingrowth and gradual transfer of load from the scaffold to the tissue.
Pre-clinical implantation studies indicate that GalaFORM 3D scaffold retains approximately 70% of its strength at 12 weeks. Bioresorption of the scaffold material will be essentially complete within 18-24 months.

44688 | Extra-gynaecological surgical mesh, synthetic polymer, bioabsorbable |
An implantable material (e.g., flat sheet) made from a bioabsorbable synthetic polymer(s) [e.g., polyglycolic acid (PGA), polycarbonate (PC), polyglycolide or carbon fibres] intended for extra-gynaecological, non-dental tissue repair/reinforcement application(s) [e.g., pericardial reinforcement, plastic surgery, abdominal hernia repair]. It may also be intended as a short-term scaffold for tissue regeneration. Disposable devices associated with implantation may be supplied with the mesh.
