Rapid HTAs of two medical devices released in Tuscany
The HTA body of the Tuscany Regional Healthcare issues three types of documents: full HTA reports, rapid HTA reports, and motivational forms. With regional decree 20315 of September 9, 2024, Tuscany Regional Healthcare published two new rapid HTA reports of medical devices in the orthopedics and surgical procedures areas.
The assessed technologies are provided below:
- Trevira tubular band (by Implantcast) for muscles and tendons for oncological patients undergoing limb salvage and prosthetic revision surgery, particularly in the proximal femur and humerus replacements;
- Anti-adhesion barrier Seprafilm (by Genzyme) for patients undergoing emergency surgery, trauma surgery, pelvic surgery, esophagogastric, pancreatic, and colorectal cancer surgery to reduce the incidence, extent, and severity of postoperative adhesions at the site of application.
