Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Implantable medical devices having galvanic particulates are disclosed. The particulate may be coated onto at least part of a surface of the medical device. In addition, the galvanic particulates may be contained in the material used to manufacture the antimicrobial medical devices, or may be embedded into the surface of the medical devices. The present invention also provides novel coating methods and processing methods. The present invention further provides a combination of galvanic particulates with an aqueous gel, a method of making this combination, and a method of treatment using this combination. The devices and compositions may have advantageous characteristics and effects including anti-microbial, anti-inflammatory, tissue regeneration promoting, and pain reduction or elimination.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
We claim: 1. A method of relieving joint pain in the arthritic condition comprising the steps of providing a composition comprising a galvanic particulate and an aqueous gel, and delivering the composition into a joint, wherein the aqueous gel comprises a carboxylmethylcellulose wherein the galvanic particulate comprises a first conductive material and a second conductive material, wherein both said first conductive material and said second conductive material have surfaces which…
