Shoulders and Elbows

TRB Chemedica (UK) Ltd supported another event this summer related to sports medicine: the BESS Annual Scientific Meeting held in Torquay (15-17 June 2012). BESS stands for British Elbow and Shoulder Society.
The annual meeting in June attracted many delegates from all parts of the UK, to attend lectures and seminars on the techniques and latest developments in shoulder and elbow surgery and other treatment options.
TRB Chemedica (UK) Ltd had a stand at the trade exhibition during the congress, and TRB staff talked to many stand visitors about the benefits of sodium hyaluronate treatments for traumatic and degenerative joint disease in the shoulder and elbow.
OSTENIL® is the only Sodium Hyaluronate product recommended in the formulary for the world-wide sports event in England this year. This fact, coupled with the experience that many of the delegates already had with OSTENIL® and OSTENIL® PLUS, helped to promote the OSTENIL® range as a valid treatment option.
OSTENIL® and OSTENIL® PLUS come in the form of syringes which can be injected into the synovial joint either to prevent or to postpone surgery.
Sodium hyaluronate can also be used post-arthroscopy: VISCOSEAL® replaces the lost synovial fluid that was washed out during the arthroscopic procedure and helps to promote joint homeostasis.
We look forward to supporting other conferences later on in 2012 where we can talk to sports physicians and medical specialists about the benefits of the OSTENIL® range, and on how it can help rehabilitate our sporting champions.

New Packaging

We at TRB Chemedica are currently in the process of updating the packaging of our products. Our customers will have already noticed the new Vismed multi bottle which now comes in a new easy-to-use "Just squeeze" dispenser bottle. Vismed single-dose vials as well as Vismed light have also changed their appearance. Vismed gel will follow in 2-3 months' time.

In the orthopaedic product range used for the treatment of osteoarthritis, Ostenil Plus and Ostenil mini have also been transformed in appearance, with Ostenil to follow shortly. Ostenil Tendon is an exciting new product used for the treatment of tendinitis and already reflects the new packaging style.



Last but not least, Viscoseal now comes in a totally new presentation: in syringe form, which makes it easier to handle in the operating theatre.
Visit our website or contact us on info@trbchemedica.co.uk for more details.

Viscoseal Roundtable Meeting

Synovial fluid replacement after arthroscopy

Arthroscopic procedures in shoulder, knee and hip are nowadays established as minimally invasive methods. However, post-operative pain, swelling and restricted mobility induced by tissue lesion cannot be completely avoided. Those post-operative symptoms can be alleviated with VISCOSEAL®, a solution of hyaluronic acid.

In January of 2011, Dr S Egger (Austria), Dr Muthu Jeyam (UK), Prof C Erggelet (Switzerland) and Dr W Weissenbacher (Austria) gathered together in Austria for a roundtable meeting, to discuss their experiences in arthroscopic surgery. A report on this meeting is now available on our website.
