Overview
Endoform™ Natural Restorative Bioscaffold is a unique extracellular matrix (ECM) product for the management of acute and chronic wounds. Endoform™ products support all phases of wound healing and are appropriate for use early in wound management to restore protease balance and advance healing to the proliferative phase.(1)
Endoform™ products:
- Provide a natural porous ECM bioscaffold for rapid cell infiltration(2)
- Contain more than 150 ECM proteins known to be important in wound healing(3)
- Contain residual vascular channels to support the establishment of new vasculature(4)
- Can indicate the presence or absence of proteases and help restore protease balance and guide re-application(5)
- Can be used by any wound care provider from day 1(1)
Endoform™ Antimicrobial Restorative Bioscaffold contains 0.3% ionic silver, appropriate for use in early acute and chronic wound management where there is an elevated risk of infection.
- Provides broad spectrum antimicrobial activity for up to 7 days*(6)
- Prevents biofilm formation(6)
- Is non-cytotoxic to dermal cells(6)

*Endoform™ Antimicrobial contains 0.3% ionic silver to protect the dressing from microbial colonization
Ionic silver has been included in Endoform™ Antimicrobial to protect the device from microbial contamination. Reduction in colonization or microbial growth on the device has not been shown to correlate with a reduction in infections in patients. Clinical studies to evaluate reduction in infection have not been performed.

How It Works
Endoform™ Natural Restorative Bioscaffold products work in all phases of healing to stabilize, correct, build and organize tissue.
Endoform™ products are made from AROA ECM™ technology and contain more than 150 extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins that enable it to interact with patient’s cells throughout all phases of healing.(1, 2) Endoform™ products are 85% collagen and 15% important secondary molecules, including structural and adhesion proteins, and glycosaminoglycans (GAGs).(1) Endoform™ products only contain components found in tissue extracellular matrix.
During the inflammatory phase, chronic wounds are characterized by elevated wound proteases that limit healing by digesting important dermal proteins.(3) Endoform™ products can help indicate the presence or absence of proteases and restores protease balance.(4, 5) If Endoform™ products are not visible in the wound bed at the time of reapplication, this can indicate elevated wound protease activity. However, if Endoform™ is visible, this can indicate that protease balance has been restored.
Endoform™ products also contain residual vascular channels that facilitate the rapid establishment of a dense capillary network by supporting migrating endothelial cells to establish new vasculature and a robust blood supply to help build new tissue.(6) This process is termed angioconduction.
