TYRXTM neuro absorbable antibacterial envelope

The TYRX™ neuro absorbable antibacterial envelope is designed to provide device stabilization when implanted. The envelope also contains the antimicrobial agents rifampin and minocycline, which have been shown to reduce infection in an in vivo model of bacterial challenge following surgical implantation.

The most common adverse events experienced during clinical studies include pain at implant sites, new pain, lead migration, infection, technical or device problems, adverse change in bowel or voiding function, and undesirable stimulation or sensations. Any of these may require additional surgery or cause return of symptoms.

Medical necessity will dictate site of service for each individual patient. Physicians should confirm inpatient or outpatient admission criteria before selecting site of service.
