METHODS FOR TREATMENT OF WOUNDS USING TIME RELEASE COMPOSITIONS

摘要

A method for treatment of wounds associated with the insertion of a medical implant, wherein an inorganic therapeutic agent containing potassium, rubidium, calcium and zinc cations is applied to the wound site on a silicone or bioabsorbable membrane. The therapeutic composition is provided in a long lasting, timed delivery formulation to improve the efficacy of the therapeutic agent. The membrane may contain a micro-texture to further control delivery of the therapeutic agent to the wound site.
