An improved biocompatible composition consisting of physiologically stable beads or particles carried in a lubricative suspension, solution, other fluid or gel. The composition is intended to be delivered into the body through a small-bored needle, cannula, or other catheter into a tissue site for the purpose of augmenting the tissue. In particular, the composition is useful for augmenting tissue in the area of the cardiac orifice of the stomach to reduce gastric reflux, in the area of the internal or external sphincter of the anal canal to reduce fecal incontinence or in the area of urethral tissue for the purpose of treating urinary incontinence.

Tissue injectable composition and method of use

A wound dressing for covering a wound to the body, providing slow release of a combination of collagenic protein and oligosaccharide, enhancing vapor transmission from the wound, and enhancing healing comprises an aqueous combination of collagen and oligosaccharide coated on a mesh surface and dehydrated to a low moisture content. The ratio of oligosaccharide to collagenic protein ranges from 1:100 to 100:1, with a content (dry basis) of collagen at about 0.1 to 30 percent and oligosaccharide in the dressing at about 0.1 to 20 percent.

Mesh matrix wound dressing

An improved biocompatible composition consisting of physiologically stable microparticles carried in a lubricative suspension, solution, other fluid or gel is presented. The composition is intended to be delivered into the body through a small-bore needle, cannula, or catheter and to a tissue site for the purpose of augmenting the tissue site and surrounding area, thereby correcting a defect, filling a void, or strengthening the support structures of the tissue. The particles are a hard, metallic substance and are carbon-coated.
