摘要： A method of making a permeation-resistant silicone elastomer-containing laminate useful for making fluid-containing implants such as mammary prostheses and gastric balloons. The method is accomplished by (a) applying a layer of an unvulcanized heat-curable silicone elastomer composition to a cured silicone elastomer substrate, (b) applying a layer of a solvent dispersion of a permeation-resistant elastomer and a solvent on the layer of unvulcanized silicone elastomer composition to form a three-layered laminate, and (c) exposing the three-layered laminate to heat until the unvulcanized silicone elastomer composition is vulcanized. The unvulcanized silicone elastomer composition must be bondable to the cured silicone elastomer substrate, the permeation-resistant elastomer is selected from the group consisting of polyurethane, silicone-polyurethane copolymer, and silicone-polycarbonate copolymer, and the permeation-resistant elastomer solvent must be compatible with both the permeation-resistant elastomer and the unvulcanized silicone elastomer composition.

摘要： This invention relates to a method of making an inflatable bone plug for plugging the open end of an intramedullary bone canal which is capable of restricting the flow of bone cement, particularly, during the insertion of bone cement, particularly during the pressurized injection of such a cement, during an operative procedure involving the fixation of the stem of an artificial joint prosthesis such as a femoral hip joint prosthesis to the end of a bone such as a femur. The bone plug is designed to be pressurized with a biocompatible fluid and to thereafter deflate in a controlled manner after the cement hardens. Preferably, the bone plug is made by forming a hollow expandable container of a silicone elastomer permeable to carbon dioxide gas which has a valve stem attached to one end of the container and an opening at the opposite end of the container. A shrinkable elastomeric band is placed over the valve stem in which a channel has been made to receive a further cooperating injection means such as a needle. The elastomeric band shrinks over the valve stem to form a resealable valve assembly. The valve assembly is located in the hollow interior of the bone plug and the opening opposite the valve stem is sealed to complete construction of the bone plug. When such a plug is inflated with a biocompatible fluid such as carbon dioxide, the plug remains pressurized for a sufficient amount of time to allow the cement to harden, but the pressure drops to a minimum within about 24 hours after inflation.

摘要： An improvement in the implantable shunt device of the type disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,181,132 wherein each valving slit within the elastomeric body of the shunt is formed by a flattened sleeve of woven vascular prosthesis material presenting opposed interior surfaces interengaged when the valving slit is in a closed condition and spaced apart when the valving slit is in an open condition. The opposed surfaces of the sleeve are formed by a material having a coefficient of friction with respect to the material of the cannula insertable therethrough less than that of the elastomeric material of the body. A separate yieldable bias operable in addition to the bias provided by the elastomeric material of the body is provided for yieldably biasing the opposed surfaces of the flattened sleeve into sealed relation when in the closed interengaged condition and into sealed relation to the exterior periphery of the portion of the cannula extending therethrough when in the open spaced apart condition. The additional bias is provided by filling under pressure opposed cavities in the elastomeric body with a yieldable material so located with respect to the flattened sleeve as to transmit the pressure thereof as the additional bias of the opposed surfaces into sealed relation when in the closed interengaged condition and into sealed relation with the exterior periphery of the cannula when in the open spaced apart condition.

摘要： A surgically implantable mammary prosthesis comprises a sac containing a filler material. The filler material is present in an amount sufficient to give the sac a relatively low profile shape and a pliant, responsive nature. The prosthesis includes a restraining means for resisting the tendancy of tissue to form the prosthesis into a sphere. The restraining means functions reactive to tissue pressure and does not substantially reduce the pliant, responsive nature of the prosthesis.
