Patent application number | Description | Published |
20090041748 | Fibrinogen-Based Tissue Adhesive Containing an Elastase Inhibitor - The present invention provides a fibrinogen-based tissue adhesive which contains an elastase inhibitor. | 02-12-2009 |
20090152305 | HAND TRIGGERED TISSUE SEALANT SPRAY APPARATUS AND SYSTEM - An applicator includes a bore for containing a sealant component, a piston moveably positioned in the bore, a plunger member connected to the piston with a distal end disposed within the bore and a proximal end depending from the bore, a distal outlet communicating with the bore and connectable to a gas source, and an actuating member carried by the proximal end of the plunger member to move with the plunger member as the plunger member moves along the bore. The applicator may be used in a system with a gas source connected to the distal outlet, and a control unit connected to the actuating member and the gas source, the control unit adapted to supply gas to the distal outlet from the gas source essentially simultaneous with a force applied to the actuating member. | 06-18-2009 |
20090275011 | SESSILE STEM CELLS - Sterile, virally safe, heterologous, homologous, isologous or autologous tissue, tissue-typed or not tissue-typed, which contains predifferentiated and/or differentiable sessile stem cells and which can be used for wound closure and/or promotion of wound healing. | 11-05-2009 |
20090311240 | VEGF165 Delivered by Fibrin Sealant to Reduce Tissue Necrosis - The present application demonstrates the clinical potential of fibrin sealants to locally deliver growth factors to ischemic tissue. More particularly, it demonstrates that hydrogels such as Fibrin Sealants can be used to deliver VEGF | 12-17-2009 |
20100168779 | TISSUE SEALING SYSTEM AND APPARATUS - A laparoscopic tissue sealant spray apparatus and system having a laparoscopic tissue sealant spray assembly combined with a trocar assembly, the tissue sealant spray assembly having an elongate delivery tube. A spray outlet at a distal end of the elongate delivery tube may be rounded or angled. A ring member provided at the distal end of the elongate delivery tube directs a spray cone toward a portion of a target tissue site, and the spray cone may be repositioned to a different portion of the target tissue site by rotation of the elongate delivery tube. The trocar assembly includes a vent opening that connects to a venting valve member that provides a vent path which passively opens upon operation of the tissue sealant spray assembly, avoiding excessive pressure build-up within a body cavity. | 07-01-2010 |
20100292717 | METHOD FOR THE IMPROVEMENT OF MESH IMPLANT BIOCOMPATIBILITY - The present invention provides a method of fixating a mesh implant to a tissue of a subject comprising attaching said mesh implant to said tissue, covering said mesh implant by an antiadhesive barrier, wherein said antiadhesive barrier is attached to said mesh implant by a biocompatible adhesive. | 11-18-2010 |
20110172703 | TISSUE SEALANT APPLICATOR SYSTEM - A tissue sealant applicator system includes a tissue sealant applicator having an elongate body forming a bore containing a tissue sealant component, a piston, and a spray adaptor in fluid communication with the bore and forming a gas flow path. The system also includes a control unit adapted to be connected to a gas source, and a first gas passageway connecting the gas flow path and the control unit. The applicator includes an actuating member cooperatively associated with the piston to eject the tissue sealant from the bore upon user actuation. The control unit is adapted to supply gas from the gas source to the first gas passageway essentially simultaneously with user actuation of the actuating member, and to permit the supply of gas to the spray adaptor from the gas source to continue to flow for a predetermined time delay after the user stops actuating the actuating member. | 07-14-2011 |
20110190812 | FIBRINOGEN-BASED TISSUE ADHESIVE CONTAINING AN ELASTASE INHIBITOR - The present invention provides a fibrinogen-based tissue adhesive which contains an elastase inhibitor. | 08-04-2011 |
20120316113 | FGF BASED FIBRIN BINDING PEPTIDES - The present invention relates to a polypeptide fragments of Fibroblast Growth Factor 2, wherein said fragments are adapted to bind to fibrinogen or to fibrin and/or increase cell proliferation, differentiation or migration. These fragments are suitable for promoting wound healing and/or hemostasis. | 12-13-2012 |
