Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention is directed to an adherent resorbable matrix for use in surgical applications. The adherent resorbable matrix includes a biocompatible adherent material including chitosan.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An adherent resorbable porous device for regenerating meningeal tissue in a patient, comprising: a biocompatible and resorbable collagen matrix sheet-having pores of sizes that permit growing meningeal tissue to infiltrate therein, and an adhesive layer having a thickness between 0.10 mm to 1 mm of dried hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose or hydroxyethyl cellulose adhesive on only one surface of the collagen matrix sheet, which when contacted with aqueous fluid provides adherence to a surface of the meningeal tissue and allows infiltration of cells of the meningeal tissue into the collagen matrix sheet, wherein the adhesive layer provides adherence to the surface of the meningeal tissue with an increased uniaxial adhesion from about 0.4N to about 10N as determined by ASTM F-2258-05; and wherein the adherent resorbable porous device has a porous structure that facilitates ingrowth of cells into the collagen matrix. 2. The adherent resorbable porous device of claim 1 further including a bioactive agent. 3. The adherent resorbable porous device of claim 1 wherein the hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose or hydroxyethyl cellulose has a molecular weight between 5 kDa and 2000 kDa. 4. The adherent resorbable porous device of claim 1 wherein the hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose or hydroxyethyl cellulose has a molecular weight between 10 kDa and 1500 kDa. 5. The adherent resorbable porous device of claim 1 wherein the adhesive layer includes a dye coloring agent. 6. The adherent resorbable porous device of claim 1 wherein the matrix sheet includes a dye coloring agent. 7. The adherent resorbable porous device of claim 1 wherein the matrix sheet and the adhesive layer include a dye coloring agent. 8. The adherent resorbable porous device of claim 7 wherein the matrix sheet and the adhesive layer are different colors. 9. The adherent resorbable porous device of claim 1 wherein the matrix sheet has a thickness from 2.5 mm to 5 mm. 10. The adherent resorbable porous device of claim 1 wherein the matrix sheet is a collagen sponge. 11. The adherent resorbable porous device of claim 1 wherein the matrix sheet has a thickness from 1.0 mm to 5 mm. 12. The adherent resorbable porous device of claim 1 wherein the matrix sheet includes pores of from 1 μm to 1000 μm. 13. The adherent resorbable porous device of claim 1 wherein the matrix sheet includes pores of from 10 μm to 500 μm. 14. The adherent resorbable porous device of claim 1 , wherein the adhesive layer has a thickness between about 0.2 mm to about 0.5 mm. 15. The adherent resorbable porous device of claim 1 , wherein the adhesive layer has a thickness between about 0.3 mm to about 0.4 mm. 16. The adherent resorbable porous device of claim 1 , wherein the adhesive layer is formed on the collagen matrix sheet by applying a solution of the adhesive to one surface of the collagen matrix sheet when it is dry and then lyophilized. 17. The adherent resorbable porous device of claim 1 , which is prepared by evenly applying a solution of the adhesive onto one side of a lyophilized collagen matrix sheet, and then lyophilizing the collagen matrix sheet having the adhesive applied thereon.
