Patient EducationPatient education is a critical part of patient care--before both the biopsy and the implant--and can help to manage expectations of patients following surgery. To support the physician in the patient education process for CARTICEL®, Genzyme has developed both the Carticel Care® program and in-office CARTICEL patient educational materials. Carticel Care: Supporting the Educational Process Understandably, the patient education process for CARTICEL can take a significant amount of time and coordination by the physician and office staff. The Carticel Care program can assist you by providing supplemental educational materials to every CARTICEL patient. Patients can receive the educational materials included in the Patient Introductory Package after their CARTICEL biopsy has been harvested. They can also receive the Implant Preparation Packet prior to CARTICEL implantation. To obtain these materials for your office please contact your Genzyme representative. In-Office CARTICEL Educational Tools Genzyme also offers in-office tools that provide a comprehensive overview of CARTICEL and the surgical procedures (biopsy & implantation) to assist in the patient education process. To obtain these materials for your office please contact your Genzyme representative.
