CA 2619552

An oriented implantable biodegradable multimodal device is disclosed. The orientated implantable biodegradable multimodal device includes a blend of a first polymer component having a first molecular weight (mwt) together with at least a second polymer component having a mwt which is less than that of the first component. The polymer within the blend may be in a uniaxial, biaxial or triaxial orientation. Also disclosed is a composite thereof with matrix polymer, processes for the preparation thereof and the use thereof as an implantable biodegradable device such as a high strength trauma fixation device suitable for implantation into the human or animal body. As examples the high strength trauma device may take the form of plates, screws, pins, rods, anchors or scaffolds.

L'invention concerne un dispositif multimodal implantable orienté biodégradable comprenant un mélange d'un premier composant polymère possédant un premier poids moléculaire (mwt) conjointement avec au moins un second composant polymère possédant un mwt inférieur à celui du premier composant. Le polymère dans le mélange peut être orienté de manière uniaxiale, biaxiale ou triaxiale. L'invention concerne également un composite de celui-ci comprenant un polymère matriciel, des procédés de préparation de celui-ci et l'utilisation de celui-ci comme dispositif biodégradable implantable, tel qu'un dispositif de fixation de trauma à résistance élevée conçu pour être implanté dans le corps humain ou animal. Par exemple, le dispositif de trauma à résistance élevée peut se présenter sous la forme de plaques, de vis, de broches, de tiges, d'éléments d'ancrage ou d'échafaudages.
