OSSEOINTEGRATIVE IMPLANTS
Disclosed are devices, systems and related surgical methods including implantable devices having a plurality of osteo-inductive, osteoconductive and/or osseointegrative surface features that may be useful in joint and/or bone replacement implants used in spinal surgeries, dental surgeries and/or other orthopedic and/or general surgical procedures.
Bioadhesive chitosan gel for controlling bleeding and for promoting healing with scar reduction without obscuring or interfering with access to a surgical field
An aqueous chitosan gel system of novel non-scarring, non-interfering, transparent, stable, solubilized chitosan that controls bleeding is described herein. The aqueous chitosan gel system can comprise water, chitosan, an acid, a plasticizer, a rheology modifying agent, an antioxidant stabilizer, an alcohol, and a multi-valent salt. Additional components of the aqueous chitosan gel system can comprise a bifunctional organic acid, a tnfunctional organic acid, a multi-functional organic acid, a phosphoric acid, a polyphosphoric acid and a salt.
Tissue-adhesive sealant device
The invention is directed to a biodegradable tissue-adhesive device for sealing tissue, said device comprising a tissue-adhesive layer which comprises a blend of a tissue-reactive polymer and a biodegradable carrier polyurethane according to the formula of A-B-C-B.sub.n, wherein A denotes a polyol, B denotes a diisocyanate moiety, C denotes a diol component and n denotes the number of recurring units, and wherein the B-C-B segment is bioresorbable.
Intraoperative uses of settable surgical compositions
Provided herein are bio-absorbable, settable and homogenous multi-putty bone-adhesive compositions for medical use in tissue hemostasis, surgical repair and reconstruction. Also provided are improved methods of intraoperative use of said compositions for re-approximation of adjacent bone fragments to create a restored alignment and stabilize fracture line.
METHODS AND DEVICES FOR CONTROLLED DELIVERY
Disclosed herein are exemplary medical devices for controlled delivery of material compositions, particularly occlusive, therapeutic, or diagnostic compositions.
BIODEGRADABLE BONE GLUE
The present invention is directed to bioresorbable polymers to be used as bone and tissue adhesives. The present invention is also directed to the synthesis of bioresorbable polymeric molecules bearing adhesive moieties and the use of such compounds in methods to glue and stabilize fractured bones and damaged tissues. The present invention is also directed to the use of such compounds as adhesive sealants for applications in wound care. The present invention is also directed to the use of such compounds as biodegradable ink for applications in tissue engineering and 3D printing. The present invention also relates to the use of such compounds as drug delivery platforms.
HEMOSTATIC DRESSING AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME
Provided is a hemostatic dressing. The hemostatic dressing includes: a porous matrix layer including a biocompatible polymer; a hemostatic layer loaded on the porous matrix layer and including a polymer in which polyhydric phenol-containing moieties are introduced; and a binding layer interposed between the porous matrix layer and the hemostatic layer to prevent the porous matrix layer from being separated from the hemostatic layer.
Methods and devices for controlled delivery
Disclosed herein are exemplary medical devices for controlled delivery of material compositions, particularly occlusive, therapeutic, or diagnostic compositions.
Tissular formulation or adhesive obtained from a blood composition containing platelets, and method for the preparation of said formulation
A formulation, or tissular adhesive, obtained from a platelet-rich blood composition and/or growth factors, and method for the preparation of this adhesive. The preparation method of the adhesive comprises the steps of raising the temperature of the initial blood composition and subsequently activating the composition. Among other advantages, the tissular adhesive is biocompatible and biodegradable, has desirable biological or medical properties provided by the presence of platelets or growth factors, and also has a high adhesiveness and an accelerated coagulation process.
Compositions and methods for adhesion to surfaces
The present disclosure features adhesive compositions and methods of use thereof related to the medical, veterinary, and dental fields.
