InnovaMatrix claims to be the first and only placental-derived medical device developed to manage burns as well as complex surgical and hard-to-heal wounds.

Produced using Convatec’s TriCleanse process, InnovaMatrix products, including the new InnovaBurn ECM, provide physicians with reproducible devices that sustain the inherent benefits of the placenta.

Convatec US Burn Division sales director Debra Noble said: “InnovaBurn is an innovative advancement in ECM technology for patients with partial-thickness, second-degree burns.

“InnovaBurn allows burn patients the benefits of the latest and best placental ECM technology. Our unique source material helps us to manufacture some of the largest ECM sizes in the industry much more affordably, so more patients have access to this brand new technology.

“Physicians tell us they appreciate the special sizing and InnovaBurn’s ease of use that help them manage larger wounds like burns.”
