The present invention provides novel compositions comprising multipotent cells or microvascular tissue, wherein the cells or tissue has been sterilized and/or treated to inactivated viruses, and related methods of using these compositions to treat or prevent tissue injury or disease in an allogeneic subject.

Compositions and methods for treating and preventing tissue injury and disease

Disclosed are products and methods for treating soft tissue injuries. The provided methods include the production of processed or cryopreserved microvascular tissue. Also provided are products and methods of using processed or cryopreserved microvascular tissue for the treatment of soft tissue injuries.

Allogeneic microvascular tissue for soft tissue treatments

A suture is provided having a multifilament sheath disposed thereabout a monofilament core. The multifilament sheath includes a plurality of yarns, and each of the plurality of yarns includes a plurality of threads. Further, the suture includes poly-4-hydroxybutyrate (P4HB).

High-strength bioabsorbable suture

The present invention provides methods for treating acute kidney injury through introduction of one or more drag reducing polymers, oligomers, and/or monomers, as well as compositions that include therapeutic amounts of one or more of these drag reducing polymers, oligomers, and/or monomers. These compositions may also include additional components that enhance at least one of the stability, effectiveness, or administerability of the polymers, oligomers, and/or monomers&#x2014;such as buffers, anti-oxidants, and enzyme inhibitors.

Method for treating acute kidney injury

The device () comprises a first snare () and a second snare (), each of these snares comprising a contractable hollow elongated body () which defines a longitudinal central axis (X, X) and which reduces its cross section when two opposed first () and second () ends thereof are axially moved away from each other. The first end () of the first snare () and the first end () of the second snare () are each open and adapted to be fitted and tightened around, respectively, two stumps (T, T) of a soft tissue (T) to be repaired. The second end () of the first snare () and the second end () of the second snare () are adapted to the axially pulled so that the second end of each of the two snares is passed alongside or through the body () of the other snare.
