A biocompatible controlled release form of complexed iodine is achieved by a complexation of polyvinyl alcohol based foam and characterized by a residual starch component to optimize iodine release profiles. The resulting iodine complexed polyvinyl alcohol foam may be utilized locally as an antimicrobial agent that releases controlled amounts of iodine sufficient to kill microbes for extended durations without excessive bulk and rigidity.

Composition and methods for antimicrobial articles

The invention disclosed comprises methods, apparatuses and compositions to treat acute and chronic wounds with pressures altered from atmospheric. The methods, apparatuses and compositions herein improve the performance of Altered Pressure wound therapy. The improvements also make the treatments more comfortable for the patient and the delivery of the treatment more convenient for clinicians. These improvements collectively result in improved efficacy, improved compliance, improved safety and improved clinical efficiency, while limiting clinical errors in treatment.

Methods, compositions and apparatuses to treat wounds with pressures altered from atmospheric

Compositions and methods for sealing, coating and adhering tissues are provided that utilize a polymeric system comprising at least a Polymer and a crosslinking agent; and, optionally, (i) a Gelation Disrupting Agent, (ii) an Augmentative Polymer or Monomer, (iii) an Adjunct Compound (iv) an Antimicrobial Agent (v) an Adhesion Enhancer, (vi) a Crosslink Augmentating Agent or any combination thereof. Additionally, a Therapeutic Agent may be incorporated.

Methods and compositions for sealing and adhering biological tissues and medical uses thereof

Therapeutic formulations adapted for positive-pressure application for controlling biological fluid at a desired site in a subject, absorbent articles comprising therapeutic formulations, and anti-infective devices coated with therapeutic formulations, said formulations comprising about 25% to about 99% by weight liquid-crystal forming compound and 0% to about 75% by weight solvent. In addition, methods of using said formulations including methods for controlling biological fluid at a desired site in a subject, methods for controlling blood loss, and methods for facilitating effective closure of a vascular wound or incision site at a desired site in a subject are disclosed, the methods comprising administering particular formulations comprising liquid-crystal forming compounds and solvents that are described herein.

Methods and apparatuses for the treatment of wounds with pressures altered from atmospheric

A lightweight, movable lift usable in pairs for lifting and rotating vehicles to allow easy access to their undersides and engine compartments. A frame and upright slidably support a carriage which is moved up and down the upright by an actuator such as a hydraulic cylinder, compressed air cylinder or mechanically operated jack screw. A vehicle support rack is connected to the underside of each end of the vehicle and to a journal such that the journal is substantially aligned with the center of gravity of the vehicle. The journal is rotatably borne by the carriage as it moves up and down the upright, whereby the vehicle may be easily rotated once it has been lifted a sufficient distance. A follower mounted an appropriate distance radially from the center of rotation of the journal is received and controlled by a follower track mounted on the upright to rotate the vehicle as it is lifted. The lift allows the vehicle to be rotated a full 90 degrees when lifted for easy access to its underside.
