NCIt definition : Solid sterile preparation consisting of a usually pliable, absorbent piece of material
(e.g. collagen), usually impregnated with a liquid preparation, intended for implantation
in the body. The material may be cut into smaller pieces before implantation, and
may be shaped around a tissue (e.g. a bone) or inserted into a medical device that
is then implanted. Implantation matrices are intended for release over an extended
period of time, usually in order to obtain a local effect. Usually the matrix disappears
with time.;
Alternative definition : EDQM-HC: Solid sterile preparation consisting of a usually pliable, absorbent piece
of material (e.g. collagen), usually impregnated with a liquid preparation, intended
for implantation in the body. The material may be cut into smaller pieces before implantation,
and may be shaped around a tissue (e.g. a bone) or inserted into a medical device
that is then implanted. Implantation matrices are intended for release over an extended
period of time, usually in order to obtain a local effect. Usually the matrix disappears
with time. When the product is packaged as a separate matrix, powder and solvent (or
matrix and solution), which are used to prepare the implantation matrix immediately
before use, the appropriate combined term should be used; see for example 'Powder,
solvent and matrix for implantation matrix'.;
