The present invention is directed to medical devices having a first porous substrate layer with at least a surface coating thereon of a first co-reactive component and a second substrate layer with at least a surface coating layer of a second co-reactive component that reacts with the first co-reactive component, and a removable barrier layer positioned between the first substrate layer and second substrate layer and in contact with said first substrate layer and said second substrate layer.

Sealant dressing with removable intermediate separating layer

Provided herein are compositions, systems and surgical methods for treating expandable soft tissue utilizing a reactive liquid hydrogel sealant mixture including a cross-linkable electrophilic compound, a nucleophilic compound, and an amphiphilic poly(alkyl)ene glycol block polymer in an amount of 20% (w/v) or less of the sealant composition. The composition can optionally include a viscosifier, in an amount of 0.1% to 1.0% (w/v) of the sealant composition.

Highly elastic medical sealants for flexible soft tissue

The present invention is directed to an absorbable hemostatic patch that utilizes a biocompatible fibrous, fabric substrate that is melt-blown and napped or loosened at the surface, with the substrate having a low-profile, high flexibility, strength and porosity that is suitable for coating cross-linkable active molecules and ultimately effective for use as a hemostat in situations of problematic bleeding.

Napped coated wound dressing

An absorbable hemostatic nonwoven patch utilizes a biocompatible substrate comprised of melt-blown microfibers as webbed sheets that are layered and bonded/entangled in descending density and ascending porosity; the substrate having a high flexibility, strength and porosity that is suitable for coating cross-linkable active molecules and ability for laparoscopic use or trocar deployment, ultimately for functional use as a highly effective hemostat in addressing problematic bleeding during both open and minimally invasive surgical procedures.
