MATERIALS AND METHODS FOR TREATING AND MANAGING WOUNDS AND THE EFFECTS OF TRAUMA

摘要

Disclosed herein are materials and methods suitable for treating traumatic injury sites resulting from wounds, surgery or other tissue disruption. Traumatic injury sites can be treated by contacting a surface of a traumatic injury at or adjacent or in the vicinity of an area of injury or damage with an implantable material. The implantable material comprises a biocompatible matrix and cells and is in an amount effective to treat the traumatic injury site. A composition comprising a biocompatible matrix and cells engrafted therein or thereon can be used to treat the traumatic injury site. The composition can be a flexible planar material or a flowable composition.
