Abstract
Description
本出願は米国特許法第119条(e)に基づいて、2011年3月23日出願の米国特許仮出願第61/466,924号の利益を主張し、この出願は参照することにより本明細書にその全体が組み込まれるものとする。
本発明は、一般に、自己保持縫合材及び一方向性自己保持縫合材を含む縫合材、縫合材の製造方法、並びに創傷修復及び外科的処置におけるこれらの使用法に関する。
本明細書で用いられ得る特定の用語の定義は、次のものを含む。
自己保持縫合材(バーブ付き縫合材を含む)は、展開の後に組織内に定着させ、リテーナが面する方向と反対の方向に縫合材が移動することに抗し、それによって、縫合材展開端部が組織から出る位置に隣接する組織を互いに固着させるために、縫合材の展開端部の周囲に、さもなければ形成しなければならない結び目を排除する(「結び目のない閉鎖」)多数の微細な組織リテーナ(バーブなど)を有するという点で、従来の縫合材とは異なる。結び目の形成を排除することにより、(i)スピッティング(縫合材(通常は結び目)が皮下閉鎖の後に皮膚を貫通する状態)、(ii)感染(多くの場合において、結び目により生じる空間に細菌が付着し、成長する)、(iii)バルク/体積(結び目を含む部分により、かなりの体積の縫合材料が創傷内に残される)、(iv)滑り(結び目がほどけるか、又は緩む場合がある)、及び(v)炎症(結び目は、創傷内において大きな「異物」となる)が挙げられるがこれらに限定されない、関連する合併症が排除される。外科的処置中に形成される結び目によってもたらされる組織内の縫合材ループは、虚血(結び目は、組織を絞扼し、その領域への血流を制限し得る張力点をもたらす)及び外科創傷におけるにおける離開又は破裂のリスク増加をもたらす場合がある。糸結びはまた、労働集約的でもあり、外科創傷の閉鎖に費やす時間の相当な割合を占め得る。追加の手術処置時間は患者にとって悪いばかりでなく(麻酔下で費やされる時間とともに合併症を起こす確率が上昇する)、手術の全体的費用をも増加させる(多くの外科的処置は、手術時間1分当たり$15〜$30の費用がかかると見積もられる)。したがって、結び目のない縫合材は、患者が改善された臨床結果を経験することを可能にするだけではなく、手術の延長及び経過観察処置に伴う時間及び費用を節約する。
本明細書に記載の縫合糸は、射出成形、スタンピング、切削、レーザー、押出し成形などを含むが、これらに限定されない、任意の適切な方法によって製造されてよい。切削に関しては、ポリマー糸又はフィラメントは、縫合材本体用に製造又は購入されてもよく、その後リテーナを縫合材本体上又は縫合材本体内に切り込むことができ、リテーナは、手動切断、レーザー切断、又は切削刃、切削砥石、砥石車等を用いて機械的に機械切削されてよい。縫合スレッドは、任意の適切な生体適合性材料で製作されてもよく、縫合材の強度、弾力性、寿命、又は他の品質を向上させるために、あるいは、組織を互いに接合すること、組織を再位置決めすること、又は外的要素を組織に付着させることの他に、更なる機能を果たすように縫合材を備えるために、任意の適切な生体適合性材料で更に処理されていてもよい。当該縫合材の適用又は使用に対して適切なように、縫合材は、本明細書で参照される公報に教示されるリテーナなど、様々な構成、配置、密度などのリテーナを備えて提供されてよい。
前節に記載した一般的な創傷閉鎖及び軟組織修復の用途に加えて、自己保持縫合材は、様々な他の適用例で使用され得る。

a.組織を貫通するための第1の端部と、

d.可変円周の可変ループを有する第2の端部であって、前記可変ループが、前記可変ループの前記円周を摺動させて変化させるために前記細長い本体に摺動自在に係合する固定ループを含み、前記第1の端部が、アンカーとして組織を固定するために前記可変ループをくぐってよく、前記アンカーが、前記第1の端部の前記展開方向への前記縫合材の移動を防止する、第2の端部と、を含む、自己保持縫合材。
