The present invention provides a method for preparing a bone protein preparation which contains for example growth factors. The present invention also provides a bone protein preparation obtained by the method and paste, putty, pellet, disc, block, granule, osteogenic device or pharmaceutical composition containing said bone protein preparation.

The present invention relates antidotes to anticoagulants targeting factor Xa. The antidotes are factor X and factor Xa protein derivatives that bind to the factor Xa inhibitors thereby substantially neutralizing them but do not assemble into the prothrombinase complex. The derivatives describe herein lack or have reduced intrinsic coagulant activity. Disclosed herein are methods of reversing anticoagulation, stopping or preventing bleeding in a patient that is currently undergoing anticoagulant therapy with a factor Xa inhibitor.

Disclosed herein are compositions and methods for improving hemostasis in the treatment of bleeding disorders and reversal of anticoagulant activity. Effective ratios of prothrombin (FII) and activated factor X (FXa) for the treatment of bleeding disorders that are as efficacious as FEIBA®, but require a lower concentration of FII are described herein.

A dermal skin protectant and carrier comprising a combination of two different viscosity dimethicone components wherein the difference between the two different viscosity dimethicone components is about 2.0 million cP or greater and comprising at least one active ingredient.

A method of production of a tissue sealing patch is disclosed. The method comprises applying a vacuum to a heated work surface; applying a solution of a biocompatible polyurethane polymer to the work surface and spreading it over the work surface with a polymer blade; evaporating the solvent; heating the work surface above the softening temperature of the polymer; spreading powdered tissue sealant material over the polymer film; incorporating the tissue sealant material to a depth of 20-60 μm in the film by pressing on a release sheet placed over the powder and polymer film; removing the release sheet from the adhesive patch material; releasing the vacuum; cooling said work surface; and removing the adhesive patch material from said work surface. The biocompatible polymer preferably comprises PEG-caprolactone-lactic acid units connected by urethane linkages, the PEG having a molecular weight of 3000-3500 amu, and a CL:LA:PEG ratio of 34:2:1.

The invention pertains to a blood coagulation factor replacement product for use in the treatment or prophylaxis of bleedings of patients having an acquired coagulation factor deficiency or for use in the treatment or prophylaxis of bleedings of patients having a congenital deficiency of a coagulation factor. Said product comprises at least isolated prothrombin (Factor II) and isolated Antithrombin III (ATIII), whereby the molar ratio between ATIII to Factor II is at least 1:30. By administration of said product the patient's risk for a thromboembolic complication is reduced.

Described herein are dried films comprising fibrin and/or fibrinogen, and methods of using same. In certain aspects, the dried films are storage stable at room temperature. In certain aspects, the dried films described herein are effective for preventing or treating a wound in a subject in need thereof.
