摘要:
A hemostatic tissue sealant sponge and a spray for acute wounds are disclosed. The sponge comprises hydrophobically modified polymers that anchor themselves within the membrane of cells in the vicinity of the wound. The seal is strong enough to substantially prevent the loss of blood inside the boundaries of the sponge, yet weak enough to substantially prevent damage to newly formed tissue upon recovery and subsequent removal of the sponge. In examples, the polymers inherently prevent microbial infections and are suitable for oxygen transfer required during normal wound metabolism. The spray comprises hydrophobically modified polymers that form solid gel networks with blood cells to create a physical clotting mechanism to prevent loss of blood. In an example, the spray further comprises at least one reagent that increases the mechanical integrity of the clot. In another example, the reagent prevents microbial infection of the wound.

摘要:
Minimally invasive neurosurgical intracranial robot system is introduced to the operative site by a neurosurgeon through a narrow surgical corridor. The robot is passed through a cannula and is attached to the cannula by a latching mechanism. The robot has several links interconnected via revolute joints which are tendon-driven by tendons routed through channels formed in the walls of the links. The robot is teleoperatively guided by the neurosurgeon based on real-time images of the intracranial operative site and tracking information of the robot position. The robot body is equipped with a tracking system, tissue liquefacting end-effector, at as well as irrigation and suction tubes. Actuators for the tendon-driven mechanism are positioned at a distance from the imaging system to minimize distortion to the images. The tendon-actuated navigation of the robot permits an independent control of the revolute joints in the robot body.
摘要:
The present invention provides for monodispersed dendrimers having a core, branches and periphery ends, wherein the number of branches increases exponentially from the core to the periphery end and the length of the branches increases exponentially from the periphery end to the core, thereby providing for attachment of chemical species at the periphery ends without exhibiting steric hindrance.
