The Suture Anchor for instability that offers the procedural
flexibility of choice, by offering most of the advantages
of HEALIX® BR – only smaller.

In long-term pre-clinical studies,
BIOCRYL® RAPIDE™ has shown to
resorb and promote bone formation3.
The #1 Biocomposite Material for
Shoulder & Knee Implants1

Size and Flexibilty: when the anchoring location is tight
on space but the pull-out strength can’t be compromised,
call on the smaller sized anchor comprised of BIOCRYL®
RAPIDE™ – the #1 U.S. biocomposite material1 providing
optimal strength.

BIOCRYL RAPIDE composite is exclusively developed by
DePuy Mitek in association with Advanced Technologies
and Regenerative Medicine, LLC.
Developed for use when your procedure calls for
the beneficial results of a bio-replaceable implant.
BIOCRYL RAPIDE promotes optimized resorption and
strength and has been proven in pre-clinical trials to
resorb and bereplaced with bone in 24 months3.

BIOCRYL RAPIDE is an innovative TCP/PLGA composite
(30% osteoconductive ß-TriCalcium Phosphate (TCP)
and 70% faster resorbing PLGA) that is shown to
resorb and promote bone formation within the
implant profile3.

Shared Features:
• Preloaded with One or Two strands of
ORTHOCORD® Suture
- 55 lbs of tensile strength
- 45% less stiff than Fiberwire
• Cannulation channels blood to the surface
• The GRYPHON suture bridge and internal
channeling provides optimal suture slideability.

The GRYPHON “P” (Push-in) BR Anchor offers a barbed design with
ease of insertion and provides greater than 25% pull-out strength
versus the competitor.

BIOCRYL RAPIDE’s resorption

By comparison, PLA implants

progressed from minor changes

exhibited significantly slower

at 3 months to marked resorp-

resorption over time3.

tion by 24 months. Following
resorption, bone formation was
seen within the implant profile.

Our Process Defines the Difference
A proprietary manufacturing process known as Micro
Particle Dispersion (MPD) Technology makes the
BIOCRYL RAPIDE a homogeneous blend of TCP and
PLGA particles. Dispersion of the composite particles
is critical to the material strength properties3.
