Norian SRS

Norian SRS is an injectable, fast setting, biocompatible material that should be used in stable bony defects or defects which have been stabilized using standard AO orthopedic techniques and implants. Norian SRS hardens in vivo to form carbonated apatite, a composition closely resembling the mineral phase of bone.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Isothermic hardening prevents thermal injury to the surrounding tissue
  • Hardens in approximately 10 minutes in a warm, wet environment, reducing the need to control moisture at the operative site
  • Cures to a maximum compressive strength of ~ 50MPa within 24 hours
  • Provides an osteoconductive scaffold that resorbs and is replaced with bone during the healing process

Indications

  • Intended only for bony voids or defects that are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure in the extremities and pelvis
  • Intended for treatment of surgically or traumatically created osseous defects

Contraindications*

  • Norian SRS should not be used in the spine
  • Norian SRS should not be used in the presence of active or suspected infection

* For complete contraindications, adverse events, and cautions, please see the complete Directions for Use.
