The SoftBiopsy®+D is a single-use brush/curette. The fabric covered tip is designed to dislodge and remove part or all of the debris or necrotic tissue from the wound surface or sample wound-base tissue if needed for analysis. The hooked medical pad employs the patented Kylon®, a specialized fabric with individually arranged hooks that gently, frictionally abrade, and collect a potential tissue specimen which is entrapped within the rows of hooks and fabric.
The SoftBiopsy®+D is indicated for patients with small (no larger than 3 X 3 cm) lesions or non-fibrotic surfaces of wounds requiring debridement in order to remove non-viable tissue and debris. Debridement may stimulate blood flow to encourage tissue regrowth. It is also indicated for scraping or debriding and then transporting tissue requiring histological analyses for further laboratory evaluation regarding identifying biofilm organisms or other pathology.
SoftBiopsy®+D is contraindicated for use in the following patients:
-Patients with known bleeding disorders or those on anticoagulant therapy.
-Patients with an acute wound infection or condition which is not amenable to debridement.
-Patients with a known allergy to nylon or acrylic plastic.
-Pregnancy or suspected pregnancy, when a wound biopsy would not be indicated.
