The invention provides composite materials that form a biocompatible and bioresorbable settable ceramic-forming composition, and that possesses high strength when set and other desirable mechanical properties. The composite materials may include additive materials that provide beneficial advantages in the handling and physical properties of the material. When a hydrated precursor, the composite material is capable of being injected through cannulas for placement in treatment sites. The composite material provided desirable handling properties and sets in a clinically relevant time period.

A composition for the treatment of wounds includes demineralized bone fibers (DBF) derived from allogeneic or xenogenic cortical bone and/or polymeric fibers made from resorbable and/or non-resorbable polymer, and the composition may also include an oxygen-generating material and/or an oxygen carrier.

The instant disclosure is directed to methods of improving bone-soft tissue healing using biocompatible electrospun polymer fibers. In one embodiment, a method may include locating a portion of a subject's bone, affixing a tendon or ligament to the bone using a hardware fixture, and placing a patch comprising at least one electrospun polymer fiber in physical communication with both the bone and the tendon or ligament. In some embodiments, the bone may be a humerus, and the tendon or ligament may be a supraspinatus tendon. In certain embodiments, the patch may comprise substantially parallel electrospun polymer fibers, and may be placed such that the fibers are also substantially parallel with the long axis of the tendon or ligament.

Bone Composite and Compositions, particularly multicomponent or multipart compositions, are for the preparation of bone constructs for use in trauma, or cancer patients for example. The multipart compositions are based around combinations of fibrinogen, thrombin, hydrogels and calcium/phosphorous salts. The multipart compositions are capable of being printed to yield bone constructs using a 3D printing process to produce accurate and precise bone constructs of a desired geometry.
