Ortho Visc

Indications:
a sterile and pyrogenic solution of sodium hyaluronate for intra-articular injections.

Characteristics:
contains 15mg / ml of sodium hyaluronate (NaHA) dissolved in physiological saline solution. The kinematic viscosity is raised to 20,000-50,000 centistokes, with an osmolality of approximately 340 milliosmole. Sodium hyaluronate is a high molecular weight polysaccharide, composed of glucuronate of sodium and acetylglucosamine. Sodium hyaluronate is distributed in all tissues of the body and is present, in high concentrations, in tissues such as the humor, the synovial fluid, the umbilical cord and the skin. Sodium hyaluronate is a tissue lubricant and is believed to play an important role in modulating the interaction between adjacent tissues. It can also act as a viscoelastic support for intra-tissue separation. Although different sodium diyaluronate preparations may have different molecular weights, they are all believed to have the same chemical structure.
The sodium hyaluronate contained in Orthovisc has an average molecular weight greater than one million daltons. Non-pyrogenic and non-inflammatory solution.
Sodium hyaluronate preparations have been shown to be well tolerated in human eyes, have no antigen properties and do not interfere with the normal wound healing process. The sodium hyaluronate contained is extracted from a natural avian source.

Characteristics:
the solution is indicated as a supplemental viscoelastic or as a replacement preparation of the synovial fluid present in the joints of human beings.
The product is suitable for the treatment of symptoms of synovial joint dysfunctions such as osteoarthritis. Action lubricant and mechanical support.
