Abstract
A novel fibrinogen-based tissue adhesive patch is disclosed. The patch comprises a backing made from a non-permeable biocompatible polymer film into which a fibrinogen-based sealant is incorporated. In preferred embodiments of the invention, the biocompatible polymer film comprises units of a biocompatible block copolymer such as a polyethylene glycol-polycaprolactone-DL-lactide copolymer connected by urethane linkages, and the fibrinogen-based sealant comprises fibrinogen, thrombin, and CaCl. In contrast to similar patches known in the art, the polymer backing serves to seal the tissue to which the patch is applied, and the sealant acts only to bind the patch to the affected tissue. The patch does not include any mesh, woven, or non-woven component. Methods of production and use of the patch are also disclosed.
