Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention provides a hemostatic composite sponge comprising a porous matrix of a biomaterial and a bioadhesive material stably associated with said sponge and present in an organized pattern on said sponge.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A hemostatic porous sponge comprising a matrix of oxidized cellulose and a bioadhesive material stably associated with at least one surface of said porous sponge, wherein said bioadhesive material is free of gelatin, said bioadhesive material is present in a range of 5 to 50 mg/cm 2 of the oxidized cellulose, and said bioadhesive material is present in a grid pattern on the porous sponge. 2. The sponge according to claim 1 , wherein the bioadhesive material is selected from the group consisting of polyethylene glycol, derivatives of polyethylene glycol, and combinations thereof. 3. The sponge according to claim 1 , wherein the bioadhesive material is reactive polyethylene glycol. 4. The sponge according to claim 1 , wherein the bioadhesive material comprises multiple reactive polyethylene glycols. 5. The sponge according to claim 1 , wherein the grid pattern forms a continuous layer on the surface of the sponge. 6. The sponge according to claim 1 , wherein the bioadhesive material comprises a mixture of two pre-polymers comprising a first cross-linkable component and a second cross-linkable component that cross-links with the first cross-linkable component under reaction enabling conditions, and the second cross-linkable component comprises a polyethylene glycol (PEG) having two or more succinimidyl groups. 7. A hemostatic porous sponge comprising a matrix of oxidized cellulose and a material enhancing the adherence of said sponge to an applied tissue stably associated with at least one surface of said porous sponge, wherein said adherence-enhancing material is essentially free of gelatin, said adherence-enhancing material is present in a range of 5 to 50 mg/cm 2 of the oxidized cellulose, and the adherence-enhancing material is present in a grid pattern on the porous sponge. 8. The sponge according to claim 7 , wherein the adherence-enhancing material is selected from the group consisting of polyethylene glycol, derivatives of polyethylene glycol, and combinations thereof. 9. The sponge according to claim 7 , wherein the adherence-enhancing material is reactive polyethylene glycol. 10. The sponge according to claim 7 , wherein the adherence-enhancing material comprises multiple reactive polyethylene glycols. 11. The sponge according to claim 7 , wherein the grid pattern forms a continuous layer on the surface of the sponge. 12. The sponge according to claim 7 , wherein the sponge comprises multiple polymers. 13. The sponge according to claim 7 , wherein the adherence-enhancing material comprises a mixture of two pre-polymers comprising a first cross-linkable component and a second cross-linkable component that cross-links with the first cross-linkable component under reaction enabling conditions, and the second cross-linkable component comprises a polyethylene glycol (PEG) having two or more succinimidyl groups. 14. A hemostatic porous sponge comprising a matrix of oxidized cellulose and a gelatin-free material enhancing the adherence of said sponge to an applied tissue stably associated with at least one surface of said porous sponge, wherein said gelatin-free material is present in a range of 5 to 50 mg/cm 2 of the oxidized cellulose, wherein the gelatin-free material is present in an organized pattern on the porous sponge. 15. The sponge according to claim 14 , wherein the gelatin-free material is selected from the group consisting of polyethylene glycol, derivatives of polyethylene glycol, and combinations thereof. 16. The sponge according to claim 14 , wherein the gelatin-free material is reactive polyethylene glycol. 17. The sponge according to claim 14 , wherein the gelatin-free material comprises multiple reactive polyethylene glycols. 18. The sponge according to claim 14 , wherein the organized pattern forms a continuous layer on the surface of the sponge. 19. The sponge according to claim 14 , wherein the sponge comprises multiple polymers. 20. The sponge according to claim 14 , wherein the gelatin-free material comprises a mixture of two pre-polymers comprising a first cross-linkable component and a second cross-linkable component that cross-links with the first cross-linkable component under reaction enabling conditions, and the second cross-linkable component comprises a polyethylene glycol (PEG) having two or more succinimidyl groups.
