摘要:
A biodegradable medical device including at least one biodegradable material and having an initial shape and at least one evolved shape. The evolved shape is different from the initial shape. The initial shape is adapted to change towards the evolved shape due to an external stimulus. The medical device has a tension loaded to a predetermined tension level. The medical device is adapted to restore the tension to the predetermined tension level for at least 2 weeks in physiological conditions, or conditions simulating the physiological conditions.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a bioabsorbable osteosynthesis fixation device for the fixation of bone fractures or osteotomies. The fixation device comprises a tip (2), a shaft (4) and a head (3). The periphery of the shaft (4) comprises ridges (6) which extend in a direction which forms an angle with the longitudinal axis of the shaft, the angle being between −45° and 45°. The present invention also relates to a method for manufacturing the bioabsorbable osteosynthesis fixation device.
摘要:
The invention relates to a bioabsorbable surgical osteosynthesis plate, operable to be secured by at least one fastener through at least one fastener opening formed in the plate to a bone. The osteosynthesis plate has first and second surfaces, and it is formed to one piece from a bioabsorbable polymer material that is oriented multiaxially and is substantially rigid and substantially deformable at a first thermochemical state. The plate comprises an oblique (diagonal) orientation gradient in relation to the direction of a reference axis of the plate.
摘要:
A bioabsorbable band system for securing a bone fracture, or an osteotomy, or a soft tissue on a bone. The bioabsorbable band system includes a needle system and a bioabsorbable band including a bioabsorbable locking member. The bioabsorbable band includes a length having an at least partially oriented structure. The bioabsorbable band further includes a locking mechanism with a locking member. Also a method for producing the bioabsorbable band.

摘要:
A medical device for surgical applications including a body. The body includes bioabsorbable basic material and has a longitudinal axis. The body includes an inner region and a peripheral region transverse to the longitudinal axis so that the peripheral region surrounds the inner region. The inner region is made of bioabsorbable basic material and the peripheral region includes the bioabsorbable basic material. The peripheral region includes a bioabsorbable reinforcing structure in addition to the bioabsorbable basic material.

A system to be used with an implanting tool having a tip part. The system has a longitudinal axis and includes a polymeric screw having a head and an adapter between the screw and the implanting tool. The adapter includes a first part that fits the tip part of the implanting tool.
摘要:
The present invention relates a system to be used with an implanting tool having a tip part. The system has a longitudinal axis and comprises a polymeric screw (31) having a head (11) and an adapter between the screw (31) and the implanting tool. The adapter comprises a first part (32) which fits the tip part of the implanting tool. The first part comprises a first element and the system comprises a second element. The first element and the second element are connected to each other with a torque limiting junction having a first maximum torque when the screw is screwed in and a second maximum torque when the screw is screwed off. The shape of the first element and the second element is such that the second maximum torque of the torque limiting junction is greater than the first maximum torque, thus allowing the removal of the polymeric screw (31) from its position.
摘要:
The present invention provides a bioabsorbable, polymeric mesh implant for the fixation of bone fragments and bridging of bone defects or gaps. The bioabsorbable, polymeric mesh includes a plurality of openings and connectors, where each opening is connected to another opening by a connector. In addition, the bioabsorbable polymeric mesh is deformable at room temperature without breaking. The present invention also include embodiments drawn to methods of using the bioabsorbable, polymeric mesh implant. In an embodiment of the present invention, the method includes applying the bioabsorbable, polymeric mesh implant to a damaged bone area, the damaged bone area, which is curved, concave, convex, angular, spherical, or any combination thereof. Another embodiment of the present invention, substitutes the bioabsorbable, polymeric mesh implant including a film, for the mesh.
