What is it indicated for?

Vitoss BiModal Bioactive Bone Graft Substitute Foam Strip is intended for use as a bone void filler for voids or gaps that are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. Vitoss BiModal Foam Strip is indicated for use in the treatment of surgically created osseous defects or osseous defects created from traumatic injury to the bone.

Vitoss BiModal Foam Strip is intended to be used for filling bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system (i.e., the extremities, pelvis and posterolateral spine) and may be combined with saline, autogenous blood, and/or bone marrow. Following placement in the bony void or gap, the scaffold resorbs and is replaced with bone during the healing process.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
