Patent

CA 2711174

A method and apparatus for reducing or eliminating pain after surgical procedures related to mucosal tissue, including tonsillectomy, adenoidectomy, or other pharyngeal operations. Certain embodiments provide a biodegradable film or covering that serves as a mechanical barrier to reduce pain caused, for example, by friction between solid food and healing tissue in the first few days after surgery. Some embodiments may include one or more therapeutic substances for locally reducing pain, facilitating healing and/or otherwise treating mucosal tissue at or near a tonsil bed.

L'invention porte sur un procédé et un appareil pour réduire ou éliminer la douleur après des opérations chirurgicales se rapportant à un tissu mucosal, comprenant une amygdalectomie, une adénoïdectomie ou d'autres opérations pharyngiennes. Certains modes de réalisation fournissent un film ou revêtement biodégradable qui sert de barrière mécanique pour réduire une douleur provoquée, par exemple, par frottement entre un aliment solide et un tissu en cicatrisation dans les premiers quelques jours après l'opération chirurgicale. Certains modes de réalisation peuvent comprendre une ou plusieurs substances thérapeutiques pour réduire localement la douleur, faciliter la cicatrisation et/ou sinon traiter un tissu mucosal au niveau de ou à proximité d'un lit d'amygdale.
