Bioabsorbable polymers for implantable medical devices: What to know
Bioabsorbable polymers are used for an expanding range of medical devices.
Bioabsorbable polymers degrade and disappear at predictable rates, making them an ideal material for parts of implantable devices that could otherwise impair healing or create an ongoing risk of injury or infection.
Bioabsorbable sutures made of glycolide/lactide polymers, first developed in the 1970s, are strong and flexible enough to hold … [Read more...] about Bioabsorbable polymers for implantable medical devices: What to know Bioabsorbable polymers are used for an expanding range of medical devices.
