INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
DEVICE DESCRIPTION
Opus™ Putty is a collagen mineral composite matrix processed into a cylindrical matrix for surgical implantation. The principal components of Opus™ Putty are anorganic bovine bone mineral and bovine type I collagen. The mineral particles are dispersed within collagen fibers forming a three- dimensional open porous matrix consisting of 55% bone mineral and 45% collagen. Opus™ Putty is provided as a sterile, dry material that is hydrated with autogenous bone marrow at the point of use. Opus™ Putty can be molded to fit the bone defect. Opus™ Putty is fully resorbed during the natural process of bone formation and remodeling.
INDICATIONS
Opus™ Putty, combined with autogenous bone marrow, is intended for use in filling bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system (i.e., the extremities, spine, and pelvis) that are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. These defects may be surgically created osseous defects or osseous defects resulting from traumatic injury to the bone.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
Opus™ Putty must not be used in patients with osteomyelitis at the operative
site.
Opus™ Putty must not be used in patients with a history of anaphylaxis,
history of multiple allergies, known allergies to bovine collagen, or who are
being treated for desensitization to meat products because this product
contains bovine collagen.
WARNINGS
Opus™ Putty should not be used in fractures of the growth plate, segmental
defects, direct contact with the articular space, and open fractures.
PRECAUTIONS
Caution should be exercised when treating individuals with bleeding diatheses
of any etiology.
Opus™ Putty should not be used to treat large defects that in the surgeon’s
opinion would fail to heal spontaneously. Opus™ Putty must be used with
internal or external fixation as indicated or required.
The use of Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory (NSAIDs) medications may delay graft
healing. The use of alternate means of pain control should be considered
whenever possible. Abstinence from smoking during and after treatment is
highly advised.
Opus™ Putty cannot be reused or re-sterilized. Open, unused products must be
discarded. In vivo stability may be adversely affected if re-sterilized.
Cross-contamination and infection may occur if re-used.
ADVERSE EFFECTS
The complications and inherent risks associated with bone grafting surgery are
not anticipated to increase with the use of Opus™ Putty. Potential
complications of surgery include wound infection, reaction to medications or
anesthesia, pain, thromboembolism, cardiac or pulmonary complications, and
blood loss.
Potential postoperative risks include, but are not limited to a hematoma,
urinary retention, thrombophlebitis, and continued pain. Also, all patients
will be exposed to the same risks associated with any bone grafting procedure
such as fracture, migration, resorption or rejection of the graft, delayed
union, nonunion, or pseudarthrosis.
These complications may require regrafting or revision.
In addition, in some instances Opus™ Putty may need to be removed from the
body, thus creating the need for a second surgery.
The possibility exists also for the failure of the implant due to incorrect
surgical technique, patient noncompliance during postoperative rehabilitation,
and other unforeseen problems. A small number of patients may experience
localized immunological reactions to this device that generally consist of
transient localized edema, swelling, and rash. Although there is no evidence
that the device will be unsafe or ineffective in such patients, the safety and
effectiveness of the device in these patients have not been established.
Opus™ Putty has not been used in clinical studies to treat patients with
metabolic bone disease, significant vascular disorders or clotting disorders,
uncontrolled diabetes, ankylosing spondylitis, achondroplasia, or in patients
undergoing anticoagulation therapy, immunosuppressive therapy, or steroid
therapy. No clinical data exist for use of Opus™ Putty in children or pregnant
women.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
The procedure must be performed in an operating room under aseptic conditions. The patient should be anesthetized or sedated, as required. After adequately exposing the bone requiring grafting, the bones should be debrided until the healthy bleeding bone is exposed throughout the graft site.
- Determine the number of Opus™ Putty to be used based on the size or volume of the defect to be filled.
- Aspirate bone marrow to the matrix on a 1:1 basis (e.g., use approximately 5 mL bone marrow for each Opus™ Putty 5 cc cylinder matrix).
- Transfer the aspirate immediately into a sterile bowl.
- Add a small amount of heparin (20 units heparin/1mL marrow) to prevent the bone marrow aspirate from clotting.
- Hydrate each Opus™ Putty with bone marrow just prior to implantation-NOTE: Hydration should require less than 1 minute.
- Gently mold the Opus™ Putty and pack the defect maintaining the structure of Opus™ Putty and the saturated bone marrow aspirate.
HOW SUPPLIED
Each package of Opus™ Putty contains either a 2.5 cc or 5 cc cylinder matrix.
Opus™ Putty is sterile, nonpyrogenic, and for single use only.
CAUTION: If there is any evidence of compromised sterility (e.g., torn
packaging), the device must not be used.
