Brief Summary
Modification(s)
|
VelNez® is a biodegradable, self-dispersive ear dressing developed by Datt Mediproducts for use after ear surgeries such as Tympanoplasty and Myringoplasty. It provides effective hemostasis within 20 minutes and naturally degrades in 20–25 days, avoiding the need for painful removal. By eliminating risks linked to traditional packing methods, VelNez® offers a safer, more tolerable alternative for postoperative care. It is specifically indicated for bleeding control and adhesion prevention in external and middle ear procedures, ensuring improved patient comfort and reducing post-surgical complications. |
