Amnio-maxx UC, per square centimeter: Q4239

Amnio-Maxx is a dual layered, dehydrated, amniotic tissue membrane graft derived from Cesarean Section donors. The Amnio-Maxx Lite version is a single layer. 

INTENDED USES: The product is for wound covering, applied directly to the wound bed. Both products are used for chronic, non-healing wounds such as diabetic foot ulcers and venous leg ulcers or soft tissue defects. 

CLAIMED BENEFITS: Amniotic tissue consists primarily of fibrillary and membranous collagens, elastin, and a mix cytokines and growth factors that provide the properties unique to placental tissues.

OPTION: There are various sizes of each product; the provider uses the size that most closely matches the wound size. Once the graft has been applied, it is covered with a bandage. Amnio-Maxx and Amnio-Maxx-Lite both come in sterile pouches.
