Abstract: The invention relates to percutaneous administration of drugs and vaccines in form of solid penetrating needles, “injectable needles”, comprising a polymeric matrix resulting from the polymerization of a polymerizable paste or mixture. The injectable needles are hard enough to penetrate the skin and can be administered percutaneously by simple pusher or injector delivery devices. The manufacturing procedure of the injectable needles allows for the incorporation of the drug as preformulated stable microparticles and incorporation of modifying agents to modulate stiffness, solubility and drug release. Drugs formulated in these injectable needles offer a safe, simple and effective alternative to conventional percutaneous drug delivery systems based on hypodermic needles and syringes that require refrigerated storage and reconstitution prior to administration.

Abstract: The present invention incorporates new materials for bone regeneration, methods for their manufacture, and application in traumatology surgery, maxillofacial surgery, dental surgery, orthognatic surgery, endodontics, ophthalmology, neurosurgery and/or osteoporotic processes, and other indications where bone regeneration is required. In particular, the present invention incorporates synthetic materials with a 20% to a 95%, preferably between 40% and 90% in mass of monetite [Ca1-XMXHPO4, where 0?x?0.05, and where M can be a divalent metallic ion], and which in their final composition incorporate between 5% and 80%, preferably between 0% and 60%, in mass of bioactive calcium compounds chosen from calcium phosphates and between 5% and 80% in total mass of bioactive silicon compounds chosen from calcium silicates and/or bioactive silica glasses and gels.
Abstract: The present disclosure refers to hand operated disposable devices for the administration of drugs, vaccines and other medicaments in the form of solid injectable needles. The devices incorporate mechanisms for the automatic retraction of the injection rod even when the user continues to exert pressure on the device. The devices can incorporate an injectable needle in a sheath or cartridge that facilitates its manufacture and manipulation. These injection devices can only be used once and their use results in a change of configuration that renders them non operational and prevents contact with parts that have been exposed to the patient's tissues.
