Bioresorbable Medical Devices as Implantable & Degradable Tissue Scaffolds
Bioresorbable Medical Device Overview: Bioresorbable medical devices are implantable materials designed for a particular treatment and degrade over time once the scaffold is no longer necessary. Bioresorbable polymer materials may be synthetic or naturally-derived, exhibit high biocompatibility, and may degrade through mechanisms including but not limited to bulk hydrolysis, surface erosion, or enzymatic degradation depending […]
