International Classification:

A61M 31/00
A61F 5/00

Abstract:

An expandable hydrogel structure formed of a housing with a superabsorbent material disposed and sealed therein, particularly wherein the housing is fabricated of a hydrogel membrane with a plurality of macropores providing fluid communication between the superabsorbent material and an exterior of the housing. Exposure of the superabsorbent material to an expansion trigger expands the housing from an initial size to an expanded size that is at least about 50 times to at least about 100 times the initial size. One or more therapeutic agents can further be disposed within the housing to provide controlled release of the therapeutic agents from the expanded housing for extended periods.

A61M 35/00
A61K 9/00

Abstract:

A tough biocompatible hydrogel having one or more drug delivery components, deformable conductors, and/or rigid electronic components incorporated therein in such a way that robust interfaces are formed between the hydrogel and the various components. The resulting hydrogel device provides a highly deformable hydrogel composite in which the reliability and functionality of the incorporated components are maintained even under states of large deformation, and from which one or more drugs can be delivered in a controlled and sustained manner regardless of the state of deformation.

International Classification:

B29C 71/00
A61K 49/22

Abstract:

Method for making a tough and compliant hydrogel. A precursor hydrogel is made of a first polymer selected to maintain high elasticity and a second polymer selected to dissipate mechanical energy. The precursor hydrogel is stretched to a multiple of its original length to form a pre-stretched hydrogel. The pre-stretched hydrogel is allowed to relax and is soaked in a biocompatible solvent to reach equilibrium swelling of the pre-stretched hydrogel whereby shear modulus of the hydrogel is reduced.
