Definitions
- the present invention relates to a composition, a method of manufacturing the composition, a method of curing the composition, a cured composition obtainable therefrom, uses of the composition and methods of using the composition.
- CPB cardiopulmonary bypass
- Soft and compliant tissue adhesives that cure rapidly, have significant adhesive strength, are biocompatible and work in the presence of blood offer a potential solution. They could be used to attach tissue surfaces together or prosthetic devices to tissue without the need for mechanical entrapment or fixation, thereby avoiding tissue compression and erosion, and may also be utilized in minimally invasive surgical procedures. Such materials could find a broad range of applications not only in minimally invasive cardiac repair, but also in the repair of soft tissues potentially with minimal scarring and damage. For example, in vascular surgery, suture-based anastomosis does not always result in an instantaneous hemostatic seal, and can create irregularities in the endothelium that predispose to thrombosis. Furthermore, the presence of permanent sutures can cause a foreign body reaction with further inflammation and scarring at the repair site, which may increase the risk of late vessel occlusion. Tissue adhesives could accomplish such repairs with an instantaneous seal and with minimal scarring or tissue damage.
- An ideal tissue adhesive especially for cardiovascular and/or gastrointestinal applications, should have most of the following properties: (1) optimal viscosity or liquid-like properties prior to curing to enable easy application to a desired area while being retained at the application site, (2) minimum washout by body fluids and activation only when desired to facilitate its delivery and repositioning of implanted devices during minimally invasive procedures, (3) significant adhesive strength, especially in the presence of blood and/or other body fluids, (4) ability to resist the mechanical loads from adhesion to highly mobile tissue, for example contractions of the heart, or pulsations in large vessels, (5) ability to form a hemostatic seal, (6) minimal inflammatory response, and (7) biodegradability, which is especially important for pediatric applications since the long-term consequences of foreign materials in the growing body are uncertain.
- This adhesion mechanism based essentially on covalent bonding between the radicals generated during the curing process and functional groups of the tissue has several limitations.
- the use of adhesives with reactive chemistry requires tissue surfaces to be dried prior to application of the pre-polymer, which makes it very challenging to use in cardiac application, such as during emergency procedures. Additionally, reactive chemistry can denature proteins or tissue and promote undesirable immune reaction such as local inflammation which can lead to adhesive rejection. Moreover, reactive chemistry that only bonds to the surface of tissue would likely have lower adhesion as the interface would be more distinct, and thus there would be a mismatch in mechanical properties at the interface between the glue and tissue.
