Tissuemed Ltd company profile

Tissuemed LTD is a UK-based medical technology company that develops tissue-based therapeutic devices like the first tissue heart valve to gain regulatory approval in Europe. The company also specializes in bioadhesives, adhesive films to prevent air, blood and fluid leaks encountered in surgery. The company has a reputation for innovation dating back over twenty years. Following divestiture of the heart valve business in 1999, Tissuemed focused its considerable scientific expertise on the development of surgical sealants. Five years of research and development yielded the TissuePatch™ product family, which is now at the core of the company’s activities. These unique surgical films have been designed specifically to help surgeons to effectively seal tissues against leakage air, blood and other fluids, including Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF).
