Beyond the first BioBrace® case

BioBrace® is designed to give you confidence across a variety of repairs through reinforcement and support of biologic healing over time.

Reinforced by data you can trust.

BioBrace® is supported by a growing body of clinical and real-world evidence across more than 70 indications. Whether it’s a rotator cuff, ACL, or MPFL, BioBrace® has shown consistent improvements in healing and functional outcomes across over 70 different procedures.

Significant improvements in pain, function, and range of motion.1

94%

Rotator cuff healing rate in high-risk patients augmented with BioBrace® 2

98.6%

Healing in ACL reconstructions augmented with BioBrace®.3

MPFL: in a retrospective study, there were no cases of recurrent dislocation of MPFL reconstruction augmented with BioBrace®.4

BioBrace® Reinforced Bioinductive Impant - Supported by evidence.

In a preclinical, in-vivo large animal study, tendon thickness increased by 180% compared with the non-operative control and was maintained through 52 weeks⁵. BioBrace®-augmented repairs reached strength comparable to native tendon by 12 weeks, no adverse local or systemic inflammatory response was observed through follow-up, and new tissue formed within, above, and below the scaffold. Preclinical evidence is not a guarantee of clinical outcomes.

Use your experience to guide where BioBrace® can add value next. BioBrace® is often incorporated in repairs where mechanical strength and healing potential are less predictable.
