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 study tests a special patch made from cow collagen (a natural protein) that doctors place over a tear in the dura, the tough outer lining of the brain or spinal cord. The patch is designed to help the dura heal after surgery.
This study tests a membrane made from cow collagen that surgeons can sew into place to repair a tear in the dura, the tough layer covering the brain or spinal cord. It collects information on how well the membrane works in everyday medical practice.
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 study tracks how well a special patch called SYNTHECEL works when used to repair the protective lining of the brain during surgery. It helps researchers learn more about the patch's safety and effectiveness in real-world use.
This trial tests a special patch called ArtiFix® that helps seal the protective membrane around the brain or spinal cord after surgery. It is designed for people who need an extra seal during their planned neurosurgery to prevent fluid leaks.
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.
