Executive Summary
Fidia Advanced Biopolymers (FAB) has CE-marked its Hyalobarrier gel for the prevention of post-surgical adhesions. The product is based on FAB's patented material ACP, an auto-crosslinked derivative of hyaluronic acid with high viscosity and mucoadhesiveness, says the Abano Terme, Italy-based company. Adhesions develop in over 90% of abdominopelvic surgery patients in western countries, it says.
