Abstract
Disclosed herein are implantable and non-implantable devices coated with an anti-TRAP agent. A system is also disclosed comprising an implantable device or a non-implantable device and a tissue-injectable/infusible liquid, oil or gel comprising an anti-TRAP agent. A system incorporating a drug-injecting pen is described. Medical biomaterials that inhibit TRAPs are discussed, as well as air pouch models for analyzing products and materials. Corresponding methods also are described.
Claims22
