摘要:
Systems, methods, and carriers for percutaneous delivery of growth factors to treat osteonecrosis in the hip and other locations are disclosed. A rolled carrier comprising a biphasic ceramic rolled by a collagen sponge, and carrying a growth factor, are inserted via a delivery tube or cannula into a pre-formed hole in bone without overstuffing of the carrier or growth factor.

A therapeutic agent carrier for treating a defect in a bone is disclosed and can include a body that can be configured to approximate a portion of the bone. Further, the therapeutic agent carrier can include a plurality of grooves formed along the body. Each groove can correspond to an incremental length of the body. The therapeutic agent carrier can also include a plurality of dosage stamps along the body and each of the plurality of dosage stamps is adjacent to a corresponding to groove.

A bone cutting template is disclosed and can include a body. A plurality of grooves can be formed along the body and each groove can correspond to an incremental length of the body. The bone cutting template can include a plurality of length stamps along the body. Each of the plurality of length stamps can be adjacent to a corresponding groove.
摘要:
An intramedullary drug delivery device is disclosed and can be inserted within a bone canal of a bone. The intramedullary drug delivery device can include a housing. A drug delivery region can be established along the housing. Also, the drug delivery region can be configured to substantially span a fracture within the bone.

In some embodiments, a request for an audio stream associated with a video output may be received. Upon receiving the request, the requested audio stream may be encoded for transmission over a network and sent to a user device associated with the request.
摘要:
This disclosure relates to compounds and compositions for forming bone and methods related thereto. In certain embodiments, the disclosure relates to methods of forming bone comprising implanting a bone graft composition comprising a growth factor such as BMP in a subject at a site of desired bone growth or enhancement in combination with a Noggin blocker.
摘要:
A carrier matrix may be delivered to a target position within a patient in a minimally invasive manner by first cutting a collagen sponge sheet into a plurality of relatively small pieces. These pieces are sized so that, when wet, they are capable of flowing through a cannula and/or reduced-diameter syringe tip. The pieces are placed into a syringe and wetted, say with a morphogenic solution, and optionally mixed with a bulking material, which is similarly sized to fit through the cannula. The thoroughly mixed and wetted product forms a viscous aggregate which may then be injected into the patient at the target site.
