## Indications for Use

The CODMAN DURAFORM Dural Graft Implant is intended for use in procedures where the repair or substitution of the patient's dura mater is needed.

## Device Story

The CODMAN DURAFORM Dural Graft Implant is a sterile, absorbable collagen sponge derived from processed bovine tendons. It serves as a dural substitute for the repair or replacement of the dura mater. The device is designed primarily as a sutureless, onlay graft, though surgeons may opt for tensionless sutures if desired. It is intended for use by surgeons in clinical settings during neurosurgical procedures. By providing a scaffold for dural repair, the implant facilitates healing and closure of the dural membrane.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; bench testing only as established in the original 510(k) submission (K033395).

## Technological Characteristics

Collagen sponge material derived from processed bovine tendons. Sterile, absorbable implant. Designed as an onlay graft for sutureless or tensionless suture application.

## Regulatory Identification
