PROCEED™ Surgical Mesh
Mesh optimized for strength and performance are critical for Intraperitoneal only mesh repair (IPOM) procedures. Trusted by surgeons for over a decade,A PROCEED™ Surgical Mesh is a macroporous, partially absorbable, tissue-separating mesh, combining large-pore mesh knitted with monofilament fibers and natural, absorbable tissue separating technology.1,2B
About this device
PROCEED™ Surgical Mesh is a sterile, thin, flexible laminate mesh comprised of an oxidized regenerated cellulose (ORC) fabric, and PROLENE™ Soft Polypropylene Mesh (a nonabsorbale polypropylene mesh encapsulated by a polydioxanone polymer). The ORC side provides a bioresorbable layer that physically separates the polypropylene mesh from underlying tissue and organ surfaces during the wound-healing period to minimize tissue attachment to the mesh. The polypropylene mesh side of the product allows for tissue ingrowth while the polydioxanone provides a bond to the ORC layer.

Features & benefits

Bacteriostatic properties
Inhibits bacterial growth to help protect against mesh contamination.C In an in vitro study, PROCEED™ Mesh demonstrated bacteriostatic properties against bacteria commonly found in surgical site infections (MRSA, MRSE, VRE, and E. coli).3D

Strength & performance
PROCEED™ Surgical Mesh is designed to withstand the maximum intra-abdominal pressure in healthy adults4-6E and allows for versatility for both open and laparoscopic repairs.1

Comfortable healing
In a study of patients from the International Hernia Mesh Registry (IHMR), those receiving open hernia repair with PROCEED™ Mesh reported significant improvement in pain and movement limitations from baseline at 12 months postsurgery.7F
