What is it indicated for?

The MediENT® Middle Turbinate Implant is intended to separate the middle turbinate from the lateral nasal wall during the clinically relevant healing phase associated with nasal/sinus surgery. The implant provides short-term fixation of the middle turbinate to the nasal septum and thus minimizes the risk of adherence to the lateral nasal wall.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
