20170340770 · 2017-11-30 · ·

The invention relates to implant materials that are based on hydraulic cements in the form of one or more pastes, suspensions or dispersions that contain mineral and/or organic and/or organomineral solids and that react, when combined or when reacted with an aqueous liquid, to a solid in a cement-type initiation reaction. The invention also relates to the use of these materials as technical, medical-technical and/or pharmaceutical products, especially as bone cements, bone replacement materials, bone glues, dental filling materials and implantable active ingredient carriers. The implant materials according to the invention in the form of one or more pastes, suspensions or dispersions that contain mineral and/or organic and/or organomineral solids are formulated in an excipient liquid in such a manner that the pastes, suspensions or dispersions are stable in storage at normal conditions over a prolonged period of time and that they react, when combined with an aqueous liquid or when added to an aqueous liquid, in a cement-type initiation reaction and set to a solid. The excipient liquid of the mineral paste, suspension or dispersion is substantially water-free, and water immiscible or insoluble or hardly soluble in water in the chemical sense.

Products for treating bleeding wounds

The invention relates to products in the form of pads or films for treating bleeding wounds, said products being formed from an organic polymer material that contains at least one particulate, crystalline inorganic polyphosphate finely divided in the organic polymer material, and the polyphosphate having a solubility in deionized water at 20 C. of less than 5 g/L, particularly less than 1 g/L, and the anion of the polyphosphate on average (number average) having at least four phosphorus atoms per polyphosphate anion.

BONE TREATMENT SYSTEMS AND METHODS
20170189577 · 2017-07-06 ·

The present disclosure relates to bone cement formulations that have an extended working time for use in vertebroplasty procedures and other osteoplasty procedures together with cement injectors that include energy delivery systems for on-demand control of cement viscosity and flow parameters.

METHODS OF USING WATER-SOLUBLE INORGANIC COMPOUNDS FOR IMPLANTS
20170136156 · 2017-05-18 ·

A method for controlling generation of biologically desirable voids in a composition placed in proximity to bone or other tissue in a patient by selecting at least one water-soluble inorganic material having a desired particle size and solubility, and mixing the water-soluble inorganic material with at least one poorly-water-soluble or biodegradable matrix material. The matrix material, after it is mixed with the water-soluble inorganic material, is placed into the patient in proximity to tissue so that the water-soluble inorganic material dissolves at a predetermined rate to generate biologically desirable voids in the matrix material into which bone or other tissue can then grow.
