Intranasal splint, non-bioabsorbable, animal-derived

81 devices · GMDN 64402

Intranasal splints (non-bioabsorbable, animal-derived) are temporary devices inserted through the nostril to stabilize nasal tissue after surgery or trauma. They help control bleeding, reduce adhesion formation, and support healing by maintaining separation between mucosal surfaces during recovery.

These devices are typically single-use and made from animal-derived materials like chitosan. Regulation varies by jurisdiction, but they are generally classified as medical devices and must comply with local safety and performance standards before market entry.
