摘要:
The present invention is directed to bone graft compositions suitable for administration to the body via a cannula, where the compositions contain mineralized collagen particles and a fluid biocompatible carrier having the mineralized collagen particles substantially uniformly distributed there through, which particles contain bound mineralized collagen fibrils substantially uniformly distributed there through and a binder for the fibrils; and to methods of making such particles.
摘要:
Vaso-occlusive devices are provided that have a polymer foam disposed about them. The polymer is treated with a plasma to facilitate thrombogenicity. A method for making and using such devices also is provided. The preferred polymer is a copolymer of a halogenated vinylidene and a halogenated alkene.
摘要:
A tissue thickness compensator can comprise a plurality of layers. Various embodiments are disclosed herein for manufacturing a tissue thickness compensator. In certain embodiments, a tissue thickness compensator can comprise at least one medicament tube, capsule, and/or packet contained therein

摘要:
The invention relates to microparticles and compositions containing the microparticles for use in delivering viable cells to specific regions in the body for treatment of diseases in the body, and to methods of treatment of such diseases, where the microparticles include a core containing an effective amount of a biologically active agent distributed there through, and a cell attached to the surface of the core, and where the compositions contain the microparticles and a vehicle for the microparticles.
摘要:
A biocompatible tissue implant. The tissue implant may be bioabsorbable, consists of a biocompatible polymeric foam. The tissue implant also includes a biocompatible reinforcement member. The polymeric foam and the reinforcement member are soluble in a lyophilizing solvent. The reinforcement may be annealed and/or coated.
