Composition comprising chitosan for use in the prevention and/or in the treatment of incontinence and/or impotence in a subject undergoing prostatectomy

A tissue dressing material for being applied in contact with a tissue of a patient. The tissue dressing material's main component is deacetylated native chitosan. Moreover, a liquid tissue dressing material for being applied in contact with a tissue of a patient, the tissue dressing material being an aqueous mixture. The main component of the constituent(s) of the mixture other than water is deacetylated native chitosan.

Chitosan tissue dressing

A kit comprising a tissue dressing material for being applied in contact with the tissue of a patient and a detachment solvent for removing the tissue dressing material from the tissue. A method of treating a tissue of a patient, the method comprising the steps of: applying a water-soluble tissue dressing material in contact with the patient's tissue; and applying an acidic detachment solvent to the tissue dressing material for removing the tissue dressing material from the tissue. A method of treating a tissue of a patient, the method comprising the steps of: applying a liquid tissue dressing material in contact with the patient's tissue; and applying a detachment solvent to the tissue dressing material for removing the tissue dressing material from the tissue. A method of treating a tissue of a patient, the method comprising the steps of: applying a water-soluble tissue dressing material in contact with the patient's tissue; and allowing the water-soluble tissue dressing material to convert into a form in which it is insoluble in water at neutral pH. And a solid material comprising a polymer salt and glycerol, the glycerol content being at least 10% of the polymer salt content by weight, for use in a method of treating a human or animal tissue.

Tissue dressing kit

A fluid-swellable fiber in particular for the use as a surgical suture, the fiber comprising chitosan, the fiber's swelling ratio being less than 100%, and a fabric comprising the fiber. Moreover, a method of manufacturing from a chitosan-containing solution a fiber comprising chitosan, wherein during manufacture, the solution is brought into contact with a coagulation medium containing at least one organic solvent, a method of removing a fiber from a living organism, wherein the fiber is at least partly dissolved in a solvent applied from the outside, and a kit comprising a chitosan containing fiber and a solvent for at least partly dissolving the fiber.

Chitosan fiber

The present invention relates to methods for disinfecting or decontaminating a material or for preventing an infection or contamination of a material. The invention further relates to compositions which are suitable for disinfecting a material or for preventing an infection or contamination of a material and to uses of such compositions. The invention further relates to a medical use of chitosan and to a pharmaceutical composition comprising the chitosan. The invention further relates to a method of treating a microbial infection and to an aqueous solution comprising chitosan. The invention moreover relates to a chitosan or a pharmaceutical composition comprising a chitosan for an epithelial cell growth stimulating treatment of a patient's tissue and to a method of stimulating the growth of epithelial cells. The invention also relates to a tissue dressing material.

Compositions and methods for disinfecting materials

A method for manufacturing a medical product comprising a hollow body (), wherein at least part of a wall of the hollow body () is coated at least on the inside with a layer comprising a polymer; at least the part of at least the inside of the wall of the medical product is brought into contact with a mixture () of the polymer and the polymer is deposited from the mixture () on at least the part of the inside of the wall. And a medical product comprising a hollow body () with a wall consisting of one or more structural elements (), at least a section of the wall being coated with a layer () comprising native chitosan, wherein both on the inside and the outside of the hollow body () at least some of the one or more structural elements () of the wall of the hollow body () are at least partly coated with the native chitosan layer (). And a method for electrodepositing a polymer on an electrode from an acidic mixture of the polymer, wherein the mixture () comprises a multibasic acid.

Medical product comprising a chitosan-coated wall and method for manufacturing a medical product

An article containing N-acylchitosan is manufactured by a process comprising the steps of providing a mixture containing chitosan and/or N-acylchitosan, and extruding the mixture to form an N-acylchitosan hydrogel. Alternatively, the process comprising the steps of providing a chitosan and/or N-acylchitosan hydrogel, and extruding the hydrogel. An article with a memorized shape is formed by fixing the N-acylchitosan hydrogel in a desired shape, and at least partially drying the fixed hydrogel. A patient is treated by injecting the N-acylchitosan hydrogel.
