Sodium hyaluronate from fermentation 2.0%. Viscoelastic solution for injection into the tendon or tendon sheath. Sterile by moist heat.
Composition:
1 ml isotonic solution contains 20.0 mg sodium hyaluronate as well as sodium chloride, disodium hydrogen phosphate, sodium dihydrogen phosphate, mannitol, and water for injection.
Indications:
For the treatment of pain and restricted mobility in tendon disorders.
Contraindications:
HYA-JECT® Do not use TENDON if there is a known hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients.
Interactions:
An incompatibility (intolerance) of HYAJECT® TENDON incompatibility with other agents used on the tendon has not been reported so far.
Side effects:
After using HYAJECT® TENDON local side effects such as pain, warmth, bruising, redness, and swelling may occur at the treated tendon.
Dosage instructions and method of application:
HYA-JECT® TENDON inject a total of 2 times at weekly intervals around the diseased tendon or into the diseased Inject into the tendon sheath. Several tendons can be treated simultaneously. Repeat treatments are possible if needed.
As long as the sterile packaging is not opened, the contents and surface of the HYAJECT® TENDON prefilled syringe sterile. The prefilled syringe is taken from the sterile packaging, the cap is removed from the Luer-Lock connection, a suitable cannula (e.g., 25 to 27 G) is attached and locked by a slight twist. Before injection, any air bubble present is removed from the syringe.
Precautions:
Caution when using HYAJECT® TENDON in patients with known hypersensitivity to drugs. As with all invasive treatments, infection can occur in very rare cases. Therefore, general precautions for peritendinous injections or injections into the tendon sheath should be observed. HYAJECT® TENDON must be correctly injected into the tendon sheath or correctly injected around the affected tendon, if necessary under fluoroscopic control. Avoid nerve injuries and injections into blood vessels! Since there is insufficient experience for the use of HYA-JECT® TENDON in children, pregnant and breastfeeding women, as well as in acute trauma, the use of HYA-JECT is® TENDON is not recommended in these cases. Do not use if the prefilled syringe or sterile packaging is damaged. Any solution not used immediately after opening must be discarded. Otherwise, sterility can no longer be guaranteed, which may lead to an infection risk. Store between 2 °C and 25 °C! Observe expiration date! Keep out of reach of children!
Properties and mode of action:
A tendon is a robust structure made of fibrous connective tissue, designed to transfer forces from muscles to bones and withstand tension during muscle contraction. Tendons can be surrounded by different structures: e.g., fibrous ligaments, synovial sheaths, tendon sheaths, bursae. Overuse or incorrect loading can cause inflammation and/or degenerative changes in the tendon, leading to pain and loss of function. Improving tendon gliding could reduce pain, improve tendon function, and decrease the likelihood of adhesions.
Due to its lubricating and viscoelastic properties, HYA-JECT supports® TENDON improves the gliding ability of the tendons as well as the physiological regeneration process. Additionally, HYA-JECT reduces® TENDON, due to its macromolecular structure, allows free passage of inflammation-promoting cells and molecules through the tendon sheath.
HYA-JECT® TENDON is a clear solution of natural, highly pure sodium hyaluronate, obtained by fermentation and therefore free of animal proteins. HYA-JECT® TENDON is also stabilized by the addition of mannitol, a free radical scavenger. In biocompatibility studies, HYA-JECT® TENDON has proven to be particularly well tolerated.
Package sizes:
A prefilled syringe HYA-JECT® TENDON at 40 mg/2.0 ml in sterile packaging.
To be used only by a doctor.
