About the product
Arthrosamid is a non-degradable and non-resorbable hydrogel composed of 2.5% cross-linked polyacrylamide and 97.5% non-pyrogenic water (McCollister et al., 1965). It is administered via an intra-articular injection into the knee joint.
The hydrogel serves as a scaffold for the synovial membrane, binding to the synovial membrane and acting as a physical buffer and scaffold.
