Abstract
The disclosed technology includes a bioabsorbable material configured to be delivered to tissue. The material includes a shape-memory polymer compressible in a delivery configuration and configured to swell within a predetermined period of time. The shape-memory polymer includes one or more functional groups for reversible bonding between adjacent functional groups to transition between an approximately linear polymer and an approximately non-linear polymer upon exposure to a stimulation.
