Mechanical modifications to a spinal rod that will enable the rod to accept various coating technologies in such a way that the spinal construct's biomechanical performance is not compromised. These modifications preserve construct biomechanics in the presence of a coating and increase the bactericidal payload of an anti-infective spinal rod coating.

Provided herein are methods of treating acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and multiple myeloma (MM) by administering an effective amount of a cell population comprising natural killer cells, wherein the cell population comprising natural killer cells is produced by a three-stage method comprising culturing a population of hematopoietic stem or progenitor cells in media comprising stem cell mobilizing factors, e.g., three-stage methods of producing NK cells in media comprising stem cell mobilizing factors starting with hematopoietic stem or progenitor cells from cells of the placenta, for example, from placental perfusate (e.g., human placental perfusate) or other tissues, for example, umbilical cord blood or peripheral blood. Further provided herein are methods of using the NK cells produced by the three-stage methods provided herein to suppress the proliferation of acute myeloid leukemia cells. In certain embodiments, the NK cells produced by the three-stage methods described herein are used in combination with IL-2.

Methods of treating acute myeloid leukemia and multiple myeloma using natural killer cells

Provided herein are methods of treatment of an individual having pain, e.g., neuropathic pain, comprising administering to the individual a therapeutically effective amount of tissue culture plastic adherent placental stem cells (PDAC&#x2122;).

Treatment of pain using placental stem cells

Compositions and methods are disclosed for the treatment of osteoarthritis. The compositions comprising combinations of hyaluronic acid, glucosamine, and chondroitin sulfate, can be useful for any synovial joint, including the knee, shoulder, hip, ankle, hands, spinal facet, or temporomandibular joint, both for the relief of pain and for slowing disease progression.

Anti-infective spinal rod with surface features

A method of repairing a hernia using a hernia mesh support device includes providing a hernia mesh support device, reducing a hernia within a patient's abdomen, inserting the hernia mesh support device into the abdomen and positioning the device in alignment with the hernia, ensuring that no abdominal organs are present between the device and the abdominal wall, whereby the step of ensuring that no abdominal organ is between the device and the abdominal wall includes the step of digitally sweeping the space between the abdominal wall and the device, removing a protective cover, and pulling on a pull strap joined to an inner ring to place the device tightly against the abdominal wall and to anchor barbed pins and hollow needles into the abdominal wall.

Methods of repairing a hernia using a hernia support device

A hernia mesh support device includes an outer ring, an inner ring and a plurality of ring support members extending between and interconnected to the outer ring and inner ring. On a first axial side of the outer ring and inner ring is situated a layer of mesh material. On a second axial side of the outer ring and inner ring is situated an anti-adhesion barrier. A plurality of barbed pins or hollow needles extend from the first axial side of the outer ring. A removable protective cover covers the plurality of barbed pins or hollow needles.

Hernia mesh support device

Disclosed are compositions and methods for preventing or reducing postoperative ileus and gastric stasis. Such compositions comprise a combination of an oxidized regenerated cellulose component and a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) which functions as an inhibitor of cyclooxygenase enzyme (Cox) activity. Such methods comprise administering an effective amount of the composition directly to the serosal surfaces of the gastrointestinal and other visceral organs.

Compositions and methods for preventing or reducing postoperative ileus and gastric stasis

A composition for reducing pain at a surgical wound site or trauma site comprising oxidized regenerated cellulose and a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug or pharmaceutically acceptable salt or ester thereof, where the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug is an acid having a secondary amine group; and a method of reducing localized pain at a surgical wound site or trauma site.

Composition and method for treating post-surgical pain

A device for treating a patient having carpal tunnel disease includes a neural stent formed from an elastically deformable material or one that has shape memory properties. The neural stent is in the form of a mesh which, when implanted in a patient, curls about the median nerve below the transverse carpal ligament to separate the two and relieve pressure on the nerve caused by the carpal ligament.
