Patent

CA 2749194

The invention provides medical devices comprising high-strength alloys which degrade over time in the body of a human or animal, at controlled degradation rates, without generating emboli. In one embodiment the alloy is formed into a bone fixation device such as an anchor, screw, plate, support or rod. In another embodiment the alloy is formed into a tissue fastening device such as staple. In yet another embodiment, the alloy is formed into a dental implant or a stent.

La présente invention concerne des dispositifs médicaux comprenant des alliages haute résistance qui se dégradent avec le temps dans le corps d'un être humain ou d'un animal, à des vitesses de dégradation contrôlées, sans production d'embolie. Dans un mode de réalisation, l'alliage est formé en dispositif de fixation pour os comme une ancre, une vis, une plaque, un support ou une tige. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, l'alliage est formé en dispositif d'attache de tissus comme une agrafe. Dans un autre mode de réalisation encore, l'alliage est formé en implant dentaire ou en endoprothèse.
