Collagen Patch for Repairing Brain or Spinal Covering
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study is testing a special collagen patch (called Dura Membranes) used by surgeons to repair tears in the outer covering of the brain or spinal cord. If you need this type of repair and don't have a cow collagen allergy, you may be able to join.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a tear or hole in the protective covering of your brain or spinal cord (the dura) that needs to be repaired with a patch.
- You are not allergic to collagen that comes from cows (bovine collagen).

This trial is testing a special membrane made from cow tissue that is used to repair the tough outer covering of the brain (the dura) during surgery. The goal is to see how well the membrane works in everyday clinical practice.
This study looks at how well a special patch made from cow collagen works to repair a tear or defect in the dura, the protective layer around your brain or spinal cord. The patch is designed to help the body close the gap during healing.
This trial tests a special patch called DuraMatrix-Onlay Plus that helps repair the protective covering of the brain (the dura mater). It may be an option if you need this type of repair during surgery.
This trial tests a new patch called ArtiFix® that helps seal the tough covering (dura) around the brain or spinal cord after surgery. It is for people who need a small, non-emergency repair and who are otherwise healthy enough for surgery.
This trial tests a patch called ArtiFix (a kind of sealing sticker) that is placed over the protective lining of the brain or spine during planned surgery to stop fluid leaks. It is designed to help wounds heal properly after surgery.
This study is testing a patch called Tutopatch used during craniotomy, a surgery that opens part of the skull. The goal is to gather more information about how well it works after it is already approved for use.
